The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived

The smallest man who ever lived

I always thought he was a myth

Until I fell in love with him

He said he liked the little things

He brought me flowers and paper rings

He said he liked the way I’d sing

La da da da

“Focus on the real thing honey”

La da da da

Laughing at my dreams, so funny

I’d watch my words, I'd watch my weight

I’d hunker down, trying not to take up space

The walls closed in, I hit the ceiling

And I broke free

His little life wasn’t built for me

The smallest man who ever lived

He had a plan, a shape to fit

And I tried to get used to it

Cause he would call me beautiful

He’d see things I thought no one saw

And I’d be alone if he was gone

La da da da

What if this what you deserve?

La da da da

What if there is nothing better?

So I’d watch my words, I'd watch my weight

I’d hunker down, trying not to take up space

The walls closed in, I hit the ceiling

And I broke free

His little life wasn’t built for me

I was never too much at all

Never too loud, never too tall

I was never too much at all

I just outgrew his four walls

So I used my words, lifted that weight

And I stretched out and found a bigger space

The walls opened, just sky, no ceiling

Yeah I broke free

His little life wasn’t built for me
