Small

Lyrics by Dan Zlotnick and Michael Goldwasser

 

I’ve been stuck in this house of mirrors

But am I all there is to see?
Warped reflections of my imperfections

No, they don’t project what’s inside of me

‘Cause outside these walls the sea spreads its arms

Its edges are too far to trace
The sun sets again and the moon and the stars

They put me in my place

Maybe I am no one, maybe I’m nothing at all

But I am someone, something when I feel small
 

Whoever said it’s good to be king?
To climb every mountain above us
With ears to the ground we can hear the sweet sounds of

Hope and peace and love

As I lay on my back and I open my mind

I lose track of time and of space
The sun rises again and the infinite sky

Puts me in my place

Maybe I am no one, maybe I’m nothing at all

But I am someone, something when I feel small

I’m not afraid anymore
I’m happy to be a grain of sand on this shore

Together we’ll weather
Whatever the world has in store for us
 

Maybe you are no one and maybe I’m nothing at all

But we are someone, something when we feel small

Maybe you are no one and maybe I’m nothing at all

But we are someone, something
When we feel small
When we feel small
