original text at lyrnow.com/1983883
Verse 1
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

Pre-Chorus
La-da-da-da
“Focus on the real thing, honey”
La-da-da-da
Laughing at my dreams, so funny

Chorus
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

Verse 2
The smallest man who ever lived
Hе had a plan, a shape to fit
And I tried to get usеd 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

Pre-Chorus
La-da-da-da
What if this is what you deserve?
La-da-da-da
What if there is nothing better?

Chorus
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

Bridge
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

Outro
So I used my words
Lifted my 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
His little life wasn’t built for me
His little life wasn’t built for me
