Lyrics

WHEN MY WORLD WAS SMALL w/m Rae Welch copyright 2005

Verse:
I used to like to lay out in the tall grass
The sweet smell of summer falling all around
My whole world floated by that opening to the sky
The one I made when I laid down

Verse:
The blue sky became the mighty ocean
And the clouds, the ships that sailed across it all
My imagination raced as I drifted in that space
Where I was happy, when my world was small

Bridge:
I heard the buzzing of a fly, a bird's soft lullaby
And their song to the earth sang me to sleep

Verse:
Then I awoke to find I was much older
I had things to do and places I would go
But life would have a cost, so much of me was lost
With that little kid I used to know

Verse:
Now no matter how I try to get that feeling back
It hasn't worked in any way I can recall
Seems impossible to find that peaceful place of mine
Where I was happy, when my world was small

Tag:
Yes, I was happy when my world was small
