Little Thing

here are the right lyrics to this song So, um, so we’ve been doing this, uh, this tour, what I guess this is our Fifth show we’ve done, tim and i, and, uh... (applause) and, uh, so this little Song has been growing out, uh, while we’ve been playing, sort of a little Story. and the little story I was in new york city and, uh, I was walking down The street. trying to find the place I was going (I can’t remember where I was Going now). ’cause I met this girl and I asked her directions, you know. and She was, she was tiny, you know. she, she wasn’t young, she was just tiny. and, Uh, so I asked her directions and she said, ’oh that’s the way down there, walk Over there, go down there, you walk over there, and you go down there and then You’re there.’ something like that, anyway. so, uh, but I walked about ten Paces away and I was thinking... daaamn, that girl was fine. and, oh, I turned Around to tell her so, and ask her maybe her name, or maybe if we should go and Get a cup of, who knows, coffee or something. and I’m sure if I turned around And find Her there I would have found out something...

But she talked so good But when I turned around, she was gone Oh, she was gone I didn’t even get her name, oh I thought, goddamn With your face in my mind And your voice in my ears To echoes Oh, I bought a lovely flower Standing there, we met that day And hope that you would return But, no, no, no

I can’t remember where I was going But I can’t remember where I was leading to Or what led me to you, but Oh, and the weight is all through my head The look of you, the sound The way you cackled at me From then and then, I didn’t know where I was going But always I cry

And so, hey, oh The hands that pour my hands on you again Hey, I will beg you, I’ll beg, oh See me, please find me again Oh, I’m lost again I sit here drinking coffee Or water depending the time of day But, oh, you’re with me like a ghost of a mother Oh, you’re with me like the pain of a father Oh, I wish i, I wish I could call you something Other than the girl that I saw then

But, hey, I think that I would recognize you in a second But, hey, I only saw you for a minute, maybe less I don’t hold my hand where But I waited, honest I’m lost now, I’m lost now I can’t remember what I used to be But, oh, hey, yeah, weighted by the memory of The memory of a love that never got born, but hey Oh, hey

Do I even cross your mind lately With more than just a laughing Did you think as you walked away, maybe You were, hey Oh, I hope you did So, hey, yeah You would, you would have been feeling The same thing as I am know

...doesn't something like this happen to about everyone at least once in their life...it's crazy that dave matthews can find the words to discribe it with out sounding stupid.

these lyrics are very wrong if i still have live from luther collage id post the corrections the part where he says dddddddaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmmmmmnnnnnnnnn...that gril was fine is really funny

this song is about a time when dave asked a girl for directions and never got her name or number....then later could not get her out of his head.

well obviously im a fan of this song, something as simple as meeting a hot girl sounds like a life altering experience, daves a genius, i bet that girls kickin herself now!

there aren't any correct lyrics b/c dave sang it differently each time.

the song is about seeing someone but only after they're gone you realize how hot they were. you want to go after them, but by then they are lost in the crowd. you can't get them out of your head, although you probably won't ever see them again. you dream about how good it would have been with that person. it's torture. most of us can relate i think.

And it's the same damn tune to two other songs...this being my least favorite of the three incarnations.

while i've never heard this song before in my life, i was curious so i read the lyrics and just had to laugh because i'm currently struggling through the exact same situation.

just by a random act of fate, you stumble upon someone who just effects you, in a way you can't really explain, though you know nothing about them. they just consume your thoughts and you have no idea why, but you know that you would give anything to hit rewind and find them, find out who they are, and if they are somewhere thinking about you too. it's all about opportunities missed. i know a little too much about how that feels...
