Emiliana Torrini – Big Jumps

I walked all morning to lift my heart

‘Cause the world keeps dancing with the paper man

I love you, never talk in dreams

But now it’s here, your happiness is real

Oh, make some big jumps, big jumps

You’re afraid to break some bones

Come on, make some big jumps, big jumps

Life is yours alone

You hold your head up, your head up high

Like you think I do

Sometimes I feel so confused

I’m under the illusion that I have to choose

I love you, always know the way

The way back home always is the same

Oh, make some big jumps, big jumps

You’re afraid to break some bones

Come on, make some big jumps, big jumps

Life is yours alone

You hold your head up, your head up high

Like you think I do

Tick-tock, this clockwork will stop

You’re the key for winding up my heart

Brick-brack, if you don’t wind me up

The sky will lie upon me like a passed-out drunk

Without you I would never rise again

Without you I would never rise

Hey there, sunshine, lift my heart

I know life is long but it goes so fast

I love you, never feeling old

You never bought the rubbish that they sold

Oh, make some big jumps, big jumps

You’re afraid to break some bones

Come on, make some big jumps, big jumps

Life is yours alone

You hold your head up, your head up high

Like you think I do

Oh, do some big jumps, big jumps

You’re afraid to break some bones

Come on, make some big jumps, big jumps

Life is yours alone

You hold your head up, your head up high

Like you think I do
