Great Leap Forward (2002 Digital Remaster) - Simple Minds

Written by：James Kerr/Charles Burchill

I jumped up like Apollo

Crash landed on my feet

The sun shot like a laser through my brain

A little death had woken up

And put a curse on me

But I knew that that I'd be coming back again

Inspiration across the nation

There's a poverty of expectation

All I got to do was move ahead

It's a blue sky

It's a while cloud

It's a flame

It's a blue sky

White cloud

Burning flame

I shot back to the mirror

There was nothing left to see

But a phantom with his heartbeat deep inside

I could feel the dust of ages

They were blowing back at me

But I knew that I was born to get it right

It's a blue sky

It's a while cloud

It's a flame

It's a blue sky

White cloud

Burning flame

Everybody take the great leap forward

Everybody knows the mysteries at hand

If you've been praying all those sweet days for this

Don't you know there is a whole different plan

Sometimes I hear the madman calling

He talks about some dark eternal place

I've been waiting all my lifetime for this moment

And now I've got to find some other ways

One touch ignites this eagle

One kiss for heavens view

I need the flame so I can feel alive

You can tell my little brother

No requiem for me

I knew that I was born to make this flight

Inspiration across the nation

There's a poverty of expectation

All I got to do was move ahead

It's a blue sky

It's a while cloud

It's a flame

It's a blue sky

White cloud

Burning flame

Everybody take the great leap forward

Everybody knows the mysteries at hand

If you've been praying all those sweet days for this

Don't you know there is a whole different plan

Sometimes I hear the madman calling

Every women every child every man

If you ever know you lover coming

I knew that that I'd be coming back again

You knew that that I'd be coming back again
