Lyrics Thats Really Something - Nerina Pallot

First the thunder came then the mountains fell.
The heavy sky grew darker, the rising rivers swelled.
The earthly hum went silent, every land a lake,
But just before oblivion I shook myself awake.

I put on my overcoat and I went out into the night.
I saw that the stars were still there, just before the light.
Like a foal on its feet for the first time,
Drinking the whole world in.
Awed by a terrible beauty,
I heard the whole world sing...

Hey, that's really something.
That's really something.
Oh, we're living now!
Hey, that's really something.
That's really something.
Yeah, we're living now!

Born out of nothingness, born of a will to live.
Like someone said, "The love you take is equal to the love you give".
From up on the hill the circle spreads its silk like an architect of time,
Mapping out the dreams and peculiar follies born of a mental mind.
So I put on my overcoat and I step out into the day.
I put light on the savage beauty.
I hear the whole world say...

Hey, that's really something.
That's really something.
Oh, we're living now!
Hey, that's really something.
That's really something.
Yeah, we're living now!

So I put on my overcoat and I slip out into the dawn.
All the morning stars, they sing together, happy just to be born.
Yeah I put on my overcoat. I'm here just to greet the day.
I'm drunk on all this stupid beauty.
I hear the whole world say...

Hey, that's really something.
That's really something.
Oh, we're living now!
Hey, that's really something.
That's really something.
Yeah, we're living now!

Hey, that's really something.
That's really something.
Oh, we're living now!
Hey, that's really something.
That's really something.
Yeah, we're living now!

Hey, that's really something.
Really something.
Oh, we're living now!
