Carrie Newcomer - Little Earthquakes lyrics

All I every wanted was a love so big All my heart could carry and as much as I could give A love that made some kind of sense but beyond all reason That made me want to be a whole lot better person Hold on as the very ground Beneath us starts to shiver and shake When you love as hard as this There's bound to be some trembling Some risk and some mistakes Something lost and something gained And Little Earthquakes Sometimes you get just what you ask for Sometimes you get what you need I never knew how much this love could call to me As right as rain and thunder that rolls across the ground That can shake you for a moment or bring the walls on down Hold on as the very ground Beneath us starts to shiver and shake When you love as hard as this There's bound to be some trembling Some risk and some mistakes Something lost and something gained And Little Earthquakes Wild and deep and elemental, rivers yield and open wide There maybe no destination but what a glorious ride Hold on as the very ground Beneath us starts to shiver and shake When you love as hard as this There's bound to be some trembling Some risk and some mistakes Something lost and something gained And Little Earthquakes So why hold back when big love is what you feel Why look behind or change your mind or spin your wheels It's bigger than the both of us and it's wider than the wind Whole world is in motion, and it's shakin' us again
