| I’ve scaled the highest mountain
|
| Crossed the big blue sea
|
| Chased that mighty, mighty dollar
|
| Dreamed of the man that I could be
|
| Little things all around me
|
| Little things that I could never see
|
| Like the love you tried to give me
|
| And in the end, just threw it away
|
| I stood atop the golden tower
|
| Rode upon a silver steed
|
| Piled the riches higher and higher
|
| More then a man could ever need
|
| Little things all around me
|
| Little things that I could never see
|
| Like the heart beating inside me
|
| That I just threw it away
|
| Like this heart beating inside me
|
| That I just threw it away
|
| Those little things all around me
|
| Little things I never learned to see
|
| Like the love you tried to give me
|
| I went ahead and threw it away
|
| Like the love you tried to give me
|
| I just threw it away
|
| Oh, threw it away
|
| Little things all around me
|
| Little things that I could never see
|
| Like the heart breaking inside me
|
| I just threw it away |
