I must have been born driven
Driven with dreaming, driven with longing
At least I knew I was living
Shot through with feeling, real good at running
I gave a few years to fantasy
And a few more to drugs and drinking
I'll give what's left to some honesty
In exchange for wishful thinking

Chorus
I'll see you in the Big Town
Keep an eye on me till I get there
See you in the Big Town
Don't lose sight of me till I get there
I'm in no hurry now, I got a pretty good ride
But it's good to know where I'm bound
I'll see you in the Big Town

I came to terms with love
When I could not escape it and you would not let go
I know what I'm made of
And it's hard to face it till I give up control
And I don't like to be powerless
But that's my ticket to freedom, baby
And there's a lesson to learn I guess
Lying in the dust of Eden

Chorus

Bridge:
There's big sky between you and me
But Your Word is good to the letter
You sent some joy my way and a little peace
And the promise that it only gets better

Chorus
