Great Wide Open World

Call her «Kathy,»
Call her «someone's wife»
She’s got two beautiful kids
In the middle of a good life…
Say the world she loved come crashin' down
She whispered up at the sky as she lay on the ground
Tiny people, with tiny problems
On a tiny planet in a Great Wide Open…
Tiny people, with tiny problems
On a tiny planet in a Great Wide Open World
Call him «Eddie,»
Call him «someone's friend»
He has his common sense,
But no sense of direction…
Say he’s reached himself a halfway point
He stops a moment to think and then he lights up a joint
Tiny people, with tiny problems
On a tiny planet in a Great Wide Open…
Tiny people, with tiny problems
On a tiny planet in a Great Wide Open World
Up above you when you’re feelin' blue…
Do the stars in the heavens look confused to you?
If you’re going to a desert night,
It can make you feel alive… Alive…
Call it «livin'»
Call it «in and out»…
Let’s say it’s takin' a breath,
And maybe havin' just a few doubts…
Havin' questions… Havin' answers, too…
Don’t matter nearly as much as havin' someone to love…
(Vocal interlude)
Tiny people, with tiny problems
On a tiny planet in a Great Wide Open…
Tiny people, with tiny problems
On a tiny planet in a Great Wide Open World…
…In a Great Wide Open World…
