Oh Land - Little Things Lyrics
Caught in the little thingsTo distract from whatWe're all wonderingWhat will be there to protect us?We're sorry, we are closed, rushingPaperbacks are torn, trafficRed lights blinkingI won't make it tonightAnd my lips are closing now, kiss meEyes that shut me outEmbracing day after day, working it out[Chorus:]Caught up in the little thingsTo distract from whatWe're all wondering, wondering, wonderingWhy are we here in the first placeTiny little cars down thereIt's a long fallWe're all wondering, wondering, wonderingWhat will be there to protect usIt's the little thingsIt's the little thingsIt's the little thingsIt's the little thingsAnd I scream against the wind, hear meWill you leave it in my hands, count me inStory is mine, live itI'll jump for your lifeImma 2 steps from the stairs up to my babyGonna toss out all the doubt‘Cause I am readyI'm a little late, ‘cause lately I've been achingAnd I know that I've been all aroundBut you've got me all now[Chorus:]Caught up in the little thingsTo distract from whatWe're all wondering, wondering, wonderingWhy are we here in the first placeTiny little cars down thereIt's a long fallWe're all wondering, wondering, wonderingWhat will be there to protect usCaught up in the little thingsI didn't sleep much! And did I do enough?To distract from whatWill a hurricane sweep us? Into the dark blue cloud aboveWe are all wondering, wondering, wonderingAnd am I able to be a wife and a friend and a rebelWhy are we here in the first placeSettle down and live in a fable. Peter Pan lost at the pool tableTiny little cars down thereAm I looking for trouble? Seeing stars in the Hubble?It's a long fallWe are all wondering, wondering, wonderingI'm forever so blind in this puzzleWhat will be there to protect usIt's the little things, little things, little things
