I Came To Hear The Music - Bonnie "Prince" Billy

I came to hear the sound

The music, God knows it brings me down

A long, long road

From now to then

I know your song, sing it again

'Cause there’s so many things I don’t believe I understand

How the days turn into weeks, turn into months

The years become a moment in the ever-changing sand

Did God make time to keep it all from happening at once?

All at once…

I came to love the music before I came to be

To know the music before it came to me

A long, long time ago, I don’t know when

We sang a song

Along with the wind

And there’s so many things I don’t believe I’ll understand

Why the days turn into weeks, turn into months

And the years become a moment in the ever-changing sand

Yes, God made time to keep it all from happening at once

All at once…

I came to be the music
