I wrote this on my 12 string Martin guitar and had the music for months before the lyrics. I just couldn't say anything to fit the backing track and melody line. The title I got off the TV thru osmosis. I remember putting the vocal down at Parr Street Studios, and our engineer, Mike Hunter, shouting down my headphones after the first take that we had something special. |

Lyrics
Wide Open Space (Album Version)
I'm in a wide open space, I'm standing I'm all alone and staring in to space It's always quiet through my ceiling The roof comes in and crashes in a daze
I'm in a wide open space, it's freezing You'll never get to heaven with a smile on your face from me I'm in a wide open space, I'm staring There's something quite bizarre I cannot see
I'm on the top of a hill, I'm lonely There's someone here to shout to miles away I could be back at my house, for I care They do not hear me, it's the same old case
I'm in a wide open space, it's freezing You'll never get to heaven with a smile on your face from me I'm in a wide open space, I'm staring There's something quite bizarre I cannot see
Wide open space, I'm standing I'm all alone and staring in to space It's always quiet through my ceiling The roof comes in and crashes in a daze
I'm in a wide open space, it's freezing You'll never get to heaven with a smile on your face from me I'm in a wide open space, I'm staring There's something quite bizarre I cannot see
I'm in a wide open space, it's freezing You'll never get to heaven with a smile on your face from me I'm in a wide open space, I'm staring There's something quite bizarre I cannot see
Lyrics by:Paul Draper
