Bonnie Prince Billy - I Came To Hear The Music (Mickey Newbury cover) Lyrics

I came to hear the music
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 year's 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 dont know when
We sang a song
Along with the wind

And there's so many things I don't believe I understand
Why the days turn into weeks, turn into months
And the year's 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
