Lyrics Yo La Tengo

Yo La Tengo

Big Sky

Big sky looked down at all the people looking up at the big sky

Everyone was pushing one another around

Big sky feels sad when he sees the children scream and cry

Big sky's too big to let it get him down

Big sky's too big to cry

Big sky's too high to see

People like you and me

One day we'll be free

We won't care, just you wait and see

'Til that day can be

Don't let it get you down

And when I think

That the world's too much for me

I think of the big sky

And nothing matters much to me

Big sky looked down on all the people who think they have problems

They get depressed, they hold their head in their hands and they cry

People lift up their heads and look up to the big sky

Big sky's too big to sympathize

Big sky's too occupied

Though he would like to try

Then he'd feel glad inside

Big sky's too big to cry

One day we'll be free

We won't care, just you wait and see

'Til that day can be

Don't let it get you down

And when I think

That the world's too much for me

I think of the big sky

And nothing matters much to me
