The Big Music, lyric by Waterboys, The

from the songs album Pagan Place

I have heard the big music
And i'll never be the same
Something so pure
Just called my name

I have drowned in the big sea
Now i find i'm still alive
And i'm coming up for ever
Shadows all behind me, ecstacy to come

I have
Climbed the big tree
Touched the big sky
I just stuck my hand up in the air
And everything came into colour
Like jazz mana from sweet, sweet chariots

I have seen the big mountain
And i swear i'm halfway there

(you'll never get there, you'll never get there, you'll never get there)

But i will, i will always climb the mountain
Because...

I have heard the big music
And i'll never be the same
Something so pure
Has called my name
