Being Small Lyrics
why i wanna be a hurricane when i'm barely a breeze?
'cause i've already seen your storm bring me down to my knees
just when we think we've made it high enough
you knock us back to the ground
we're all trying to move up fast, can't see the contrast
of how the king came down
'cause i can't build my towers higher
and live inside your fire
no no, no no no
whenever i climb too high
keep my feet on the ground
and when i get full of me
turn me upside down
you know pride and not just summer
come before the fall
so if it's you that's gettin' bigger i don't mind
being small
being small
maybe if i shout real loud maybe then i'll draw a crowd
and then they'll finally cheer
or maybe i should tone down, never make a sound out
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e79286-jimmy_needham~being_small_lyrics.html ]
anything to draw them near
maybe there's more to life then trying to make a name
even though they say it ain't so
so maybe i should step on down
hand off the king's crowns
to the guy on the throne
'cause i can't build my towers higher
and live inside your fire
no no, no no no
these people won't miss me
i'll be out of their memories
the ground will forget me for sure
only one is remembered
one name to be treasured is yours
