In A Big Country Lyrics - The Best Of 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 fires the mountainside 

Stay alive, here we go 

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 a desert 

But I can live and breathe 

And see the sun in wintertime 

In a big country dreams stay with you 

Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside 

Stay alive 

In a big country dreams stay with you 

Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside 

Stay alive 

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, see ya 

I'm not expecting to grow flowers in a desert 

But I can live and breathe 

And see the sun in wintertime 

In a big country dreams stay with you 

Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside 

Stay alive 

Ha, ha 

In a big country dreams stay with you 

Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside 

Stay alive 

In a big country dreams stay with you 

Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside 

Stay alive
