The song is one of Rice's most popular, and has been used in several media, like in the movie In Good Company, and the TV shows Bones, The OC and The L Word.

Cannonball Lyrics
[00:26.39] There's still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
[00:33.29] Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
[00:39.45] It's still a little hard to say what's going on
[00:47.65]
[00:52.44] There's still a little bit of your ghost, your witness
[00:59.11] Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed
[01:05.43] You step a little closer each day
[01:09.37] That I can't say what's going on
[01:12.93]
[01:17.86] Stones taught me to fly
[01:24.05] Love, it taught me to lie
[01:30.80] Life, it taught me to die
[01:36.16] So it's not hard to fall
[01:40.10] When you float like a cannonball
[01:46.23]
[02:10.40] There's still a little bit of your song in my ear
[02:16.76] There's still a little bit of your words I long to hear
[02:23.38] You step a little closer to me
[02:27.07] So close that I can't see what's going on
[02:35.32] Stones taught me to fly
[02:41.92] Love, it taught me to lie
[02:48.27] Life taught me to die
[02:54.06] So it's not hard to fall
[02:58.04] When you float like a cannon
[03:01.26] Stones taught me to fly
[03:08.11] Love, it taught me to cry
[03:13.56] So come on courage, teach me to be shy
[03:19.98] 'Cause it's not hard to fall
[03:23.96] And I don't wanna scare her
[03:27.15] It's not hard to fall
[03:30.33] And I don't wanna lose
[03:33.24] It's not hard to grow
[03:36.80] When you know that you just don't know
[03:43.19]
[00:33.29] Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
[00:39.45] It's still a little hard to say what's going on
[00:47.65]
[00:52.44] There's still a little bit of your ghost, your witness
[00:59.11] Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed
[01:05.43] You step a little closer each day
[01:09.37] That I can't say what's going on
[01:12.93]
[01:17.86] Stones taught me to fly
[01:24.05] Love, it taught me to lie
[01:30.80] Life, it taught me to die
[01:36.16] So it's not hard to fall
[01:40.10] When you float like a cannonball
[01:46.23]
[02:10.40] There's still a little bit of your song in my ear
[02:16.76] There's still a little bit of your words I long to hear
[02:23.38] You step a little closer to me
[02:27.07] So close that I can't see what's going on
[02:35.32] Stones taught me to fly
[02:41.92] Love, it taught me to lie
[02:48.27] Life taught me to die
[02:54.06] So it's not hard to fall
[02:58.04] When you float like a cannon
[03:01.26] Stones taught me to fly
[03:08.11] Love, it taught me to cry
[03:13.56] So come on courage, teach me to be shy
[03:19.98] 'Cause it's not hard to fall
[03:23.96] And I don't wanna scare her
[03:27.15] It's not hard to fall
[03:30.33] And I don't wanna lose
[03:33.24] It's not hard to grow
[03:36.80] When you know that you just don't know
[03:43.19]
