Vega, Suzanne - Big Space Lyrics
He said you stand in your own shoes
I said I'd rather stand in someone else's
He said you look from your direction
I said I like to keep perspective
It seems we're looking for a center
What if it turns out to be hollow?
We could be fixing what is broken
Between the pen and the paperwork
There must be passion in the language
Between the muscle and the brain work
There must be feeling in the pipeline
Beyond the duty and the discipline
All feelings fall into the big space
Swept up like garbage on the week-end
Between the pen and the paperwork
There must be passion in the language
Between the muscle and the brain work
There must be feeling in the pipeline
All feeling
Falls into the big space
All feeling
Swept into the
Avenues of angles
Between the pen and the paperwork
I'm sure there's passion in the language
Between the muscle and the brain work
I know there's feeling in the pipeline

Genius Woman!!
Another masterpiece...
Beautifully poetic.
This was my favourite song from her "Days of open hand" album, with its haunting
melody, and carefully crafted lyrics. This is Suzanne at her best.
+Gary Dunn I agree ! Besides , Yuval Mishory have just posted an other rare old song of Suzanne , it's called "Playing" , I've just found it two hours ago ...
+Gary Dunn Mine Too
I was not aware of this song "Playing" I am just going to check it out.
I agree with wmfivethree !
@small blue caramel If you are a big fan of Suzanne, as I am. You will know thatnone of her songs a superficial run of the mill "Pop Songs" like most of thegarbage that fills the airwaves today. All her songs have cleverly crafted lyrics,she writes songs about all kinds of subjects, mostly from experiences in herown life. Her music moves people intellectually, that's what Suzanne's musicis all about. She is a rare, and often unappreciated, Singer/Songwriter.
@Gary Dunn I totally agree with you , Gary . But my problem with Suzanne's lyrics is that my english level is still average . Since 1987 I'm working with dictionary to translate her songs . I guess it never could allow me to fully understand and appreciate her craft , as an english-speaking-born person is able to . Now , therefore , thanks to the web and especially Youtube , interviews and comments are a very precious help for me .
I learned English as a 13 year old kid with (among other things) her lyrics ^_^
Cool little psychedelic groove with intelligent lyrics. Classic Vega!
this song is awesome, Suzanne Vega rocks
I believe she said "between a muscle and a brainwave" (not Brain work). Thanks for posting. Love this track. Check out "Blood Sings" by Suzanne Vega as well.
