Little World

Little World - Gretchen Peters Lyrics

baby lock that old front door

got a good red wine to pour

cause the world is just too much for me tonight

i'm a soldier back from war

too tired to care no more

and too sad to put up any kind of fight



but from here to the garden gate

where the sweet wild roses wait

it's a little world, it's a little world



Between Jupiter and Mars

and these cold and icy stars

we oughta take what earthly comfort we can find

Cause it's a big and lonely world

and I'm a sad and lonely girl

it's easy to get lost out there sometimes



but from here to the garden gate

the path is small and straight

and it's a little world, it's a little world



two spoons in a kitchen drawer

a dance on a hardwood floor

two shadows move behind a darkened door

a dog with a juicy bone

a sigh from a saxophone

only a fool would wish for more



from here to the garden gate

Is the world that we create

just a little world, it's a little world
