Small Boxes Lyrics

[00:41.84] It was too much in the house we lived in
[00:46.34] It was your man, I had known that it was him
[00:50.84] He looked around at us
[00:54.48] His eyes were bound and cross
[00:58.04] His face, dirty with rage
[01:09.82] Trees all gone, I walked home alone again
[01:14.37] The red and plush underneath your pillow
[01:19.72] The hill runs down to stay under the ground
[01:26.02] I'll crawl in there floating on sound
[01:29.64] You promised her, you promised her, she'd laugh a little
[01:34.26] You promise her again, I'll take it all back
[01:38.77] You promised her, don't promise her, things she'll never get, no
[01:43.29] I promised her that I would hold her hand
[02:07.68] One arm, two feet holding small like child
[02:12.12] If we could meet again just for a while
[02:17.52] In time we learn, don't fake the sound of pain
[02:23.98] In the road, don't cross without me
[02:39.18] You promised her, you promised her, she'd laugh a little
[02:43.60] You promise her again, I'll take it all back
[02:48.20] You promised her, don't promise her, things she'll never get, no
[02:54.46] I promised her that I would hold her hand
[03:10.73]
