about

Larger Than A Little: The third track was written when a wonderful dog named, Mia was becoming more and more frail due to old age. She was such a good dog and I cherished the memories I had with her. It's a song about love and how important it can really be.

lyrics

Larger Than A Little
Music & Lyrics By: Nathaniel Hockman

You think about love,
What’s it to you?
Think of all the dreams you’ve had
While snuggled up in bed.
Whether you’re lonely,
Or completely in love and happy,
What is love to you?
Love is a thing you don’t always choose,
Love is thing that you don’t abuse,
Love is a thing to keep close to you.

Just leave out the cold part,
To avoid a broken heart,
I’d like to think that these love songs did something to me,
But they didn’t and this is to you, from me.

You think about love,
What’s it to you?
Think of all the dreams you’ve had
While snuggled up in bed.
Whether you’re lonely,
Or completely in love and happy,
What is love to you?
Love is a thing you don’t always choose,
Love is thing that you don’t abuse,
Love is a thing to keep close to you.

True love is unconditional,
For better, for worse get lost in my verse.
A love song is traditional,
It surely wouldn’t be the first,
First or last, as clear as glass, right there in the middle,
Love is such a powerful thing,
Much larger than a little.

You think about love,
What’s it to you?
Think of all the dreams you’ve had
While snuggled up in bed.
Whether you’re lonely,
Or completely in love and happy,
What is love to you?
Love is a thing you don’t always choose,
Love is thing that you don’t abuse,
Love is a thing to keep close to you.

It’s the only thing that makes you want to grow old,
And equally want to die young,
A feeling of flying within the clouds,
And also six feet under the ground.
Makes your heart race in mysterious ways,
It can make you laugh for days.
Smile so much and make your blood pump,
Happy for hundreds of days.
