PORTISHEAD LYRICS - Small

"Small"



If I remember the night that we met

Tasted a wine that I'll never forget

Opened the doorway and saw through the light

Motions of movement and I felt delight



She spoke of freedom, "A way in," she said

"A wisdom that took me away from the bed"

Spoke of the glory that we had become

I felt forgiven in all I've become



Small, tasteless, and forgot

Hoping to see, blinded like me

You tried to understand, but you're just a man

Open to scorn just like me



Failure again

Tried to pretend

Who you were then

Who you are now



Hating the lord

Hating the lord

Hating the lord

Hating the lord



Small, tasteless, and forgot

Hoping to see, blinded like me

You tried to understand, but you're just a man

Open to scorn just like me



Failure again

Tried to pretend

Who you were then

Who you are now



Hating the lord

Hating the lord

Hating the lord

Hating the lord
