One Small Year - Shawn Colvin

One small year

It’s been an eternity

It’s taken all of me to get here

Through this one small year

The hands of time

They pushed me down the street

They swept me off my feet to this place

And I don’t know my face

Now through the night I can pretend

The morning will make me whole again

Then everyday I can begin

To wait for the night again

One more tune

That never will be done

It’s just another one for the moon

For the days in the ruin

Just today I woke up feeling fine

Like the world was mine

I was clean

And it was a dream

Where out of the blue

Came you and me

The wizard of oz had set us free

You let me float you to your feet

Just like you believed in me

It’s like you believed in

One small year

I wonder where I’ve gone

It’s shouldn’t seem so long or so weird

But I was always here

I was always here

It’s just one small year
