I have L.A homework and I have to anylyse lyrics that I choose off the internet, I chose the lyrics of So Small by Carrie Underwood.
I really like the song and I can get a hint of what the song means but I still can't truly grasp what it means...can someone help me out here.
Not only do I have to anylyse these lyrics as a whole I need to anylyse every single stanza--which is each grouping of words then a space for another grouping of words.
Lyrics:
What you got if you ain't got love?
The kind that you just wanna give away
It's okay to open up
Go ahead and let the light shine through
I know it's hard on a rainy day
You wanna shut the world out
And just be left alone
But don't run out on your faith
'Cause sometimes that mountain you've been climbing
Is just a grain of sand
And what you've been out there searching for forever
Is in your hands
And when you figure out
Love is all that matters after all
It sure makes everything else
Seem so small
It's so easy to get lost inside
A problem that seems so big at the time
It's like a river that's so wide
It swallows you whole
While you're sitting around thinking 'bout what you can't change
And worrying about all the wrong things
Time's flying by, moving so fast
You better make it count 'cause you can't get it back
Sometimes that mountain you've been climbing
Is just a grain of sand
And what you've been out there searching for forever
Is in your hands
Oh, and when you figure out
Love is all that matters after all
It sure makes everything else
Seem so small!
Sometimes that mountain you've been climbing
Is just a grain of sand
And what you've been out there searching for forever
Is in your hands
And then you figure out
Love is all that matters after all
It sure makes everything else
Oh, it sure makes everything else
Seem so small
I really like the song and I can get a hint of what the song means but I still can't truly grasp what it means...can someone help me out here.
