lyrics

i'm thinking about the big world / its shape leaves a shadow on my brain / a big shadow of a place i cannot understand / with its promises of pleasure and pain / shall i run shall i move shall i watch it all from here ? / shall i laugh at myself for crying ? / or shall i listen to the lips a-whispering in my ear / ' no shadow is as big as love' ? / a man showed me a picture in his wallet / he said 'this is my girl far away' / he said ' sometimes it's hard living this big life / but it's good to know she's with me anyway' / now do i blush do i turn do i show the way i feel ? / do i laugh and say 'you must be lying' ?/ or do i listen to the lips a-whispering in my ear / 'no distance is as big as love' ?/ not as big as this / a child threw a smile in my direction / it conjured up a picture in my brain / of a flame that never dies / a fire that only burns the big prison doors that jail my innocence / shall i knock shall i dig shall i start a fire in here ? / shall i laugh at myself for trying ? / or shall i listen to the lips a-whispering in my ear / 'no prison is as big as love' ?/ no doubt no pain no shadow on my brain / no distance is as big as love / not as big as this
