Mayer Hawthorne - Little Person Lyrics






I'm just a little person,
One person in a sea
Of many little people,
Who are not aware of me.

I do my little job
And live my little life,
Eat my little meals,
Miss my little kid and wife.

And somewhere, maybe someday,
Maybe somewhere far away,
I'll meet a second little person
Who will look at me and say:

"I know you,
You're the one,
I've waited for,
Let's have some fun..."

Life is precious, every minute,
And more precious with you in it,
So let's have some fun.

We'll take a road trip,
Way out west.
You're the one,
I like the best.

I'm glad I've found you,
Like hanging 'round you,
You're the one,
I like the best.

Somewhere, maybe someday,
Maybe somewhere far away... [x3]

I'll meet a second little person...
And we'll go out and play.

Mayer Hawthorne Little Person Comments
  1. T.... S....

    no comments for three years?
    feel lucky to have found this through a friend.
    there's just too much in the world, how do you find the lil' gems
    wait, not lil
    just gems

  2. B.... ....

    I loved the original but the arrangement and vocals were so fucking sleepy. A little pizzazz goes a long way here. Perfect rendition from da gawd.

  3. A.... M....

    you're the best.

  4. M.... ....

    the day i will find my wife i will sing her this song its so fucking real peace!

  5. C.... C....

    In case nobody realizes this, it's a cover of Deanna Storey - Little Person from the soundtrack to the movie Synecdoche, New York. Listen to her song, it's beautiful.

    @Christian Canter Lyrics by Charlie Kaufman. Music by Jon Brion. Performed by Deanna Storey.

  6. C.... S....

    does anyone know how to play this on piano?

  7. K.... L....

    life makes more sense knowing this song.

  8. M.... F....

    Love this!!!

  9. R.... B....

    nice.......my life

  10. K.... ....

    seriously why does this song have to end?

  11. H.... J....

    Your version is aweeeesome. It's perpetually stuck on repeat on my iPod
    :DDDD

  12. S.... ....

    Loved both the animated vid and your version of this song ^^

  13. S.... ....

    I like the more 'funky' theme in this cover, brings a whole other feel about this lovely piece

  14. S.... R....

    Sad and hopeful - what a great mix :)

  15. F.... B....

    Such a great song! We're working on an animated video for it. We'll try to let you know when it's up.

  16. S.... M....

    well this is a really nice cover this song

  17. B.... V....

    dam dis shits hawt

  18. G.... B....

    Que genial es esta canción, hermosa letra!

  19. b.... ....

    @FuckingDracula this one just so happens to be better.

  20. d.... ....

    @BiggyJiggi And so what? A cover is not supposed to be better than the original, it's supposed to be some kind of tribute to the original

  21. P.... M....

    @BiggyJiggi

    This is nice too though.

  22. B.... J....

    ...the original version, sung by Deanna Storey is much better...

  23. T.... ....

    @ellioteaston93 I'm black & I'm hoping that you're only saying that stupid shit for attention. If not, it's sad that you're so silly. What does his race have to do with his voice? NOT A GODDAMN THING! What about Chuck Berry, Adele, Hall & Oates, Teena Marie, & Hendrix? Real music--real soul doesn't have a face. Be mature enough to recognize real talent, & if you can't do that be kind enough to spare the rest of world of your ignorance.

  24. P.... B....

    @ellioteaston93 Why? Only black people can produce real music?

  25. e.... ....

    @ellioteaston93 lol

  26. s.... ....

    Disliking this is like disliking Santa as a child.

  27. D.... L....

    yea this song is alright, need something more after1:40ish though.

  28. N.... ....

    @Kalydahskope Yeah I agree, this was the best song on the EP. I love how he totally flipped it and gave it his own flavor.

  29. O.... ....

    @ellioteaston93 black of white it doesnt matter people is a people ;)

  30. a.... ....

    I wish artists would come to Europe countries more often. They usually visit 5 countries. In the US they travel mostly around all big cities.

  31. Y.... C....

    @berzerkrobot He really does it justice. Both versions are great, Mayer just adds that soul to it

  32. b.... ....

    Even tho i had never heard the original, I knew it was Jon Brion instantly. Brilliant! Hawthorne is amazing.

  33. t.... ....

    gonzalesjc I take your words as mine

  34. g.... ....

    this song has been stuck on repeat since i got the EP

  35. M.... ....

    thumbs up to real music....
