The Big Sky Lyrics
They look down
At the ground
Missing
But I never go in now
I'm looking at the big sky
I'm looking at the big sky now
I'm looking at the big sky
You never really understood me
You never really tried
That cloud, that cloud
Looks like a kite
C'mon and blow it a kiss now
But quick
'Cause its changing in the big sky
Its changing in the big sky now
Were looking at the big sky
You never understood me
You never really tried
This cloud, this cloud
Says Noah
C'mon and build me an ark
And if you're coming, jump
'Cause were leaving with the big sky
Were leaving with the big sky
Were leaving with the big sky
Were looking at the
Were looking at the
And we pause for the jets
Hup, hup, in the big sky
Were leaving with the big sky
You want my reply?
What was the question?
I was looking at the big sky
Were looking at the
Tell 'em, sisters
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
At the ground
Missing
But I never go in now
I'm looking at the big sky now
I'm looking at the big sky
You never really understood me
You never really tried
Looks like a kite
C'mon and blow it a kiss now
But quick
Its changing in the big sky now
Were looking at the big sky
You never understood me
You never really tried
Says Noah
C'mon and build me an ark
And if you're coming, jump
'Cause were leaving with the big sky
Were leaving with the big sky
Were leaving with the big sky
Were looking at the
Were looking at the
And we pause for the jets
Hup, hup, in the big sky
You want my reply?
What was the question?
I was looking at the big sky
Tell 'em, sisters
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky
Rolling over like a great big cloud
Rolling over with the big sky

I love this song, it makes me happy too.
"You never understood me You never really tried"
Love it.
this song makes me so happy. i think it's about forelorn whimsy and pensive daydreaming and beauty.
There's also a reference to interviewers/the press... the opening two lines (she rarely does interviews) and the "You never understood me / You never really tried..."
everything passes by like clouds - the world too - reference to Noah's Ark sounds apocalyptic - despite to the cheerful music of the song
"They look down at the ground, missing. But I never go in now" the best part of the song. Why the hell did she not repeat it ?? Why the hell this part its so short!!!?? anyway good song...
As Noah escaped the flood,so can we escape now by jumping into the Big Sky. Watch out for the jets.
Guys please listen to the meteorological mix, that way way better than the album version
Despite the lyrics,it's a very upbeat song.
