    Story Behind the Song
    I was playing with a friend of mine and the verse came up. We worked it out and the next day I wrote the chorus and the middle section. A few weeks later we recorded a demo of it. I listened to the demo every day at the beach. I finished the tune 15 years later. It took forever to sequence and even longer to record. I also had to relearn it three times because I kept forgetting the chords between sessions. I finally wrote a chart for it. I had to keep doing the vocals over until my voice was in shape. The song is right at the top of my range. I'm not complaining though. The solos were done in one take. They were meant to be scratch tracks but I got kicked out of my studio and
    didn't have anywhere to record for awhile and forgot the changes again so I said "screw it".

    Lyrics
    BIG WORLD

    I'D BEEN A LOT OLDER IN MY YOUNGER DAYS
    I HAD ALL OF THE ANSWERS
    IN THE QUESTIONING PHASE
    WHEN I GREW TIRED OF THE LATEST CRAZE
    HOW WOULD I FIND MY WAY IN THIS

    BIG, BIG WORLD, BIG, BIG WORLD

    NARROWING IN ON A RELEVANT NORM
    SORTING THE FICTION FROM
    THE FACT AND THE FORM
    FACING WHAT'S REAL RIDING THE STORM
    THATS WHERE THE TRUTH IS BORN IN THIS

    BIG, BIG WORLD, BIG, BIG WORLD

    RUNNING THROUGH LIFE LIKE A MAN IN A MAZE
    SEARCHING FOR MEANING AND COMING OF AGE
    LOOKING FOR ANSWERS IN THE TURN OF A PHRASE HERE I COME I'M HERE TO STAY

    BIG, BIG WORLD, BIG, BIG WORLD
