In A Big Country

Big Country

I've never seen you 
look like this without a reason 
Another promise fallen through, 
another season passes by you

I never took the smile 
away from anybody's face
And that's a desperate way 
to look for someone who is still a child

*In a big country 
dreams stay with you
Like a lover's voice 
far as the mountainside
Stay alive

I thought that pain and truth 
were things that really mattered
But you can't stay here 
with every single hope you had shattered

I'm not expecting 
to grow flowers in the desert
But I can live and breathe 
and see the sun in wintertime

*Chorus x 2

So take that look out of here, 
it doesn't fit you
Because it's happened 
doesn't mean you've been discarded
Pull up your head off the floor, 
come up screaming
Cry out for everything
you ever might have wanted
I thought that pain and truth 
were things that really mattered
But you can't stay here 
with every single hope you had shattered

I'm not expecting 
to grow flowers in the desert
But I can live and breathe 
and see the sun in wintertime

*Chorus x 3
