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

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 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
