Make the world small,
Enough for two to hear their sounds,
No matter the distance and instance.
Squeeze the thoughts, make it a word,
When they are so plenty, make it a few.
Make the words small,
Enough that 3 will mean so much,
For miss: I miss you.
With love: I love you.
Speak them with the best colours of sound.
Make all paintings small,
Enough to show the future in one frame,
One painting for two, the world we wish,
The future we think, dreams of chocolate,
Hope it’s painted with all coulours of the wind.
Sing all songs as one,
Glow the hearts, and the face smiles,
Voices hidden and lyrics singing itself,
See all meanings also as one,
The reason the song is ours.
Make all hearts as one,
Then we’ll be all; all alone in the world,
We beat one sound, share one thought,
Kiss one sound and say one prayer,
Like a song ‘for my prettiest friend’
Make the world small,
Make the words small,
Make all paintings small,
Sing all songs as one,
Make all hearts as one,
So you’ll hear everything I want to say.
