about
A bouncy little pop song with a happy-go-lucky vocal bridge in the middle.
lyrics
Verse 1:
I took a walk out on the hill
Far far far away
I saw the city lying far below
The cool breeze in my hair
Softly moved my mind (it moved my mind)
I heard the rumble coming from below
And the works of men in the distance (oooo)
And the works of God in silence (oooo)
Fill my heart with wonder
Chorus 1:
Big sky shining in the eye of my mind (3x)
(Big sky shining)
And I hope that you won’t mind
Verse 2:
I took a dive into the river
Far far far away (Far far far away)
I came across many towns and people
(Many towns, many people, all the way)
The cool current led me far
All the way down to the sea (down to the sea)
It felt good to hear the song of the seagull
And the works of men in constance (oooo)
And the works of God in presence (oooo)
Fill my heart with wonder
Chorus 2:
Big sky shining in the eye of my mind (3x)
(Big sky shining in the eye of my mind)
And I hope that you won’t mind
4 part harmony vocal bridge
Verse 3:
I chose to fly over the fire
Far far far away
Fleeting ashes lying down below
A red flower on the ground
Shyly caught my eye
I felt the blossom coming from below
And the works of men in conscience (oooo)
And the works of God in brilliance
Fill my heart with wonder
(Fill my heart with wonder) (3x)
Choruses 1 & 2
Big sky shining in the eye of my mind (2x)
(Big sky shining)
Big sky shining in the eye of my mind (3x)
(Big sky shining in the eye of my mind)
And I hope that you won’t mind
