Story behind the song
Amy wrote this song a few years ago and has finally recorded it it, all by herself I might add, the lovely tune, the words, the mixing and mastering, with some helpful hints from oor Juri !!. Amys bro Nick did the bass, oor wonderful Thomas Mooore did the geetar and I helped out with some harmonies. I loved this song the moment I heard it and I was very honoured to be asked to be part of it. Thanks Amy darling, you're a STAR and the song is just beautiful and I'm so proud of ya!!!!
Amy also did the art work for this track by the way, one talented lady!!!!!!!!!!!
Lyrics
Little Things
by Amy Caldwell
Nameless streets and faceless people pass;
unimagined and unknown.
In the flesh I go unnoticed.
Too faceless to show who I am
And I wonder why
I am too scared to smile
and I wonder
if they wonder too.
And I don't know where, or how or when to start.
I'm here now but I don't know what to do.
All Alone, I never thought
I'd see this place this way.
On my own,
taking deep, brave breaths
and trying to forget my home
But I am here against every odd,
Though I'm scared and unknown
But I'm ready to pick up the pieces
and I'll lay them all out in a row.
And I pray to God that you'll see a difference
and teach me all the little things that I need to know.
So I am here, and I've been here a while
and I'm no further ahead
sometimes I cry
and I lock myself inside
wish I could be anywhere else instead.
And I still feel scared, and a little out of place
gotta fight to keep the hopelessness away.
But nothing stays the same, I came to live this dream
and somehow I've got to find a way
All Alone, I never thought I'd
see this place this way.
On my own,
taking deep, brave breaths
and trying to forget my home
But I am here against every odd,
Though I'm scared and unknown
But I'm ready and willing to pick up the pieces
and I'm gonna lay them all out in a row
and I swear to God that you will see a difference
if you teach me all the little things that I need to know.
Oh teach me all the little things.
