In a big country

I 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
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
In a big country dreams stay with you
Like a lover´s voice fires the mountainside
Stay alive [x2]
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
In a big country dreams stay with you
Like a lover´s voice fires the mountainside
Stay alive [x2]
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
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
In a big country dreams stay with you
Like a lover´s voice fires the mountainside
Stay alive [x2]
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
In a big country dreams stay with you
Like a lover´s voice fires the mountainside
Stay alive [x2]
