Oh Land - Little Things lyrics

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 (chorus) 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 (chorus) 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…..
