Chris Whitley Big Sky Country

Now when this over
Over and through
And all them changes have come and passed

I wanna meet you in the big sky country
Just wanna prove, mama, love can last, yeah.
Like hallelujiah in the big sky country,
Just like forever and ever is why.
Be getting over in the big sky country,
Big kissing time, kissing time goodbye.

God knows it's all been done,
and let me tell you why.

Cause you held my number,
you held my name,
you held my body through the thick and thin,

On a bed of roses in the big sky country,
Spread out to love you, love you in your second skin
Like hallelujiah in the big sky country,
Just like forever and ever is why.
Be getting over in the big sky country,
Big kissing time, kissing time goodbye.

Hallelujiah, mama, razzle-dazzle,
from the cries that got lights all over the place,
Hallelujiah, I mean, Lordy, hallelujiah
If I can only come around once and see your face.
So just watch them lovers out on parade.
Watching lovers while they slip and slide.

They gonna prove it to the big sky country,
Just gonna prove it while the whole world collides,
Like hallelujiah in the big sky country,
Just like forever and ever is why,
Be getting over in the big sky country,
Big kissing time, kissing time goodbye.

Maybe I'll make up in the big sky country,
Be just like lovers, and love is why.
When we hold over till the big sky country.
Big kissing time, kissing time goodbye.

Big sky country. (x6)
