Hi All,
https://soundcloud.com/my-idiom/the-big-surprise-master-2-v-135I was going to leave it a while before posting another song as I feel I've put quite a few up recently but I wanted to get this one on now so that I don't end up putting it on at the wrong time and then missing the deadline for the summer comp.
Anyway, I'll leave you to decide on it's meaning.
Thanks for your time, all comments welcome.

The Big Surprise - © M Blair 2017
V1
As a child full of wonder
I learned to walk, nothing to run for
Taught to dream not to worry
That someday I would be the hero in the story
Did they lie to me
Chorus
Is this the big surprise?
Is this the wide blue yonder?
Is this the sum of all there is and all that there can be?
Was I sold a lie?
V2
I’ve travelled far since I was younger
down this road I never faltered
I’ve seen the lightning heard the thunder
Survived the flood that took me under.
Was it a fantasy
Mid 8
We’re just mice on a big wheel
keep on turning keep on earning
like a ship in a bottle
going nowhere no returning
