Got this ego it got knocked down. Walking real slow starin’ at the ground
                                                                    
A million loners wake up every day. My life's not over just twisted out of place
                                                  
I stop in my tracks to watch the clouds get tossed around
                                         
Suddenly that's all  I can think about...   I’ve got the... 

-CHORUS-
                                  
Big sky...      To hold me... and I’ve got my 
                                  
whole life...     Unfolding... There’s beauty in 
     /                           /         /                      
soli -  tude  So don't tell me that   I    need  you  
                                                               
I'm on the outside... of being lonely... I've got the whole sky...     to hold me


                                                                         
I take the train home almost every night And I talk to strangers just to feel alive
                                                              
So I asked this lady when I was feeling bold, oh
                                        
 "Am I going crazy or is this just gettin’ old?"
                                              
Half smile and she told me she misses bein’ young,
                                             
When e-very moment just strikes the passion. She said, 
                                               
"Girl, let yourself cry, an’ it’ll get rid of your fears
                                                         
of feelin’ thoughts, don't calculate the cost."      I’ve got the...


-REPEAT CHORUS-

    
Sometimes my skin is stretched so far 
         
You can see right through it to my beating heart
                        
It's just a growing thing
     
Just when I think I'm gonna’ shrivel up 
      
I can feel the breathing of a deeper love
                                        
running through my veins     
                
Oh, and that'll never change
 

                                     
I've got the whole sky...   To hold me
                     
Temporar’ly...     lonely
                  /                           /        /
I needed the soli -  tude, oh  Just to find out I don't need you  I’ve got the 

                               
Big sky...      To hold me and I’ve got my 
                                
whole life...     Unfolding  There’s beauty in 
       /                      /        /                      
soli  -  tude  So I’m starting up strong and new  
                                                             
I'm on the outside...  of being lonely.  I've got the whole sky...    to hold me
