Big and Small
To think things are so small
We act like we are big and tall
As we let things come and go
Walk by others and see their woes
If there was only one to see
The world could be brighter by thee
I want to know what can be helpful
to show the people what it is to be special
And to the things that brought joy
To walk the streets and see a broken boy
This world plays along like a slow piano
Watching, observing people move slow tempo
To think things are so small
We act like we are big and tall
As we let things come and go
Walk by others and see their woes
The pain, the hurt, the anxiety
This place, a broken society
Put on a fake smile
So no one sees it worth while
There is only one thing to fight
Only one thing to bring my spirit to flight
The feeling of caring and love
Just like the sign of a precious dove
To think things are so small
We act like we are big and tall
As we let things come and go
Walk by others and see their woes
To know the feeling of affection
Bring so many to attention
To hit all the senses at once
You put me in a spot to make a choice
The only thing I want is happiness
And YOU, you bring me out of the sadness
Now finally I get to see
What the good in the world is to me
