Bonnie Prince Billy I Came To Hear The Music 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 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 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
