Big Year

Big Year

They said it's gonna be a big year

They threw a party out on Sundance Square

I took a trip while I was standing

And the clock struck twelve

I hitched a ride to the Twilite Lounge

I saw some friends, was asked to settle down

But I was flying so she drug me out

And then things got weird.

Yeah it's gonna be a big year

Whatever's coming it can meet me here

I ain't brave, but I ain't scared.

Come what may.

I'll face it with an open heart

An open mind and my broken art.

There's no future written in the stars

That cannot be rewritten

Bad news started pouring down

It kept on raining, it's still raining now

But here and there the sun peaks out

Behind the clouds.

And there were places that I thought I'd see

Some lovely faces that I'd planned to meet

Some music-making and songs to sing

In harmony

Still, it's gonna be a big year

Whatever's coming it can meet me here

I ain't brave, but I ain't scared.

Come what may.

I'll face it with an open heart

An open mind and my broken art.

There's no future written in the stars

That cannot be rewritten

And off into the night we went

And the walls came down

What could be and what exists

Are ours to create as we choose.

Yeah they said it'd be a big year

They threw a party out on Sundance Square

I took a trip while I was standing there

And then things got weird.
