Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've never seen you look like this without a reason
Another promise, fallen through
Another season passes by you
[Verse 2]
In a big country, dreams stay with you
Like a lover's voice past the mountainside
Stay alive
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
In a big country, dreams stay with you
Like a lover's voice past the mountainside
Stay alive
[Verse 5]
I thought that pain and truth were things that really matter
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 breath and see the sun in wintertime
[Verse 6]
In a big country, dreams stay with you
Like a lover's voice past the mountainside
Stay alive
[Verse 7]
In a big country, dreams stay with you
Like a lover's voice past the mountainside
Stay alive
[Verse 8]
So take that look out of here, it doesn't fit you
Because it's happened doesn't mean you've been discarded
Pull your head off the floor, come up screaming
Cry out for everything you ever might have wanted
[Verse 9]
I thought that pain and truth were things that really matter
But you can't stay here, with every single hope you had shattered
[Verse 10]
I'm not expecting to grow flowers in a desert
But I can live and breath and see the sun in wintertime
[Verse 11]
In a big country, dreams stay with you
Like a lover's voice past the mountainside
Stay alive
