In the beginning
You thought you had it made
It looked so easy, Baby, from the start
In the beginning
You thought you would have your way
But you got lost when it got so dark
Everybody's got their dues to pay
Baby, who can say what it's all about?
Everyone has got to pay some price
It's a sacrifice, but there's one way out (if you just do)
Something BIG
You don't have to walk on water
Living is a miracle
Just start it out small, watch it grow up tall
Into something BIG
When you were living
Somebody else's dream
The whole wide world was waiting up ahead
Now that you've given
Just about everything
You wonder just where all this time has led
Everyone has got it hard sometimes
And it ain't no lie, Baby, lose or win
Everybody's up against the wall
And you're bound to fall
But you better get up again, and do
Something BIG...
Maybe you could be the president
Baby it's a brand new world
Just start it off small, then you grew up tall
Now you're something big
Now time is rising all around you like a flood
You'll survive, don't let it drown you in the mud
You know it's in your blood...
Something BIG...
