little things

Singer: oh land

caught in the little things

to distract from what

we're all wondering

what will be there to protect us?

we're sorry

we are closed

rushing

paperbacks are torn

traffic

red lights blinking

i won't make it tonight

and my lips are closing now

kiss me

eyes that shut me out

embracing day after day

working it out

caught up in the little things

to distract from what

we're all wondering

wondering

wondering

why are we here in the first place

tiny little cars down there

it's a long fall

we're all wondering

wondering

wondering

what will be there to protect us

it's the little things

it's the little things

it's the little things

it's the little things

and i scream against the wind

hear me

will you leave it in my hands

count me in

story is mine

live it

i'll jump for your life

imma 2 steps from the stairs up to my baby

gonna toss out all the doubt

'cause i am ready

i'm a little late

'cause lately i've been aching

and i know that i've been all around

but you've got me all now

caught up in the little things

i didn't sleep much! and did i do enough?

to distract from what

will a hurricane sweep us? into the dark blue cloud above

we are all wondering

wondering

wondering

and am i able to be a wife and a friend and a rebel

why are we here in the first place

settle down and live in a fable. peter pan lost at the pool table

tiny little cars down there

am i looking for trouble? seeing stars in the hubble?

it's a long fall

we are all wondering

wondering

wondering

i'm forever so blind in this puzzle

what will be there to protect us

it's the little things

little things

little things.
