Following the relationship, preluded by 'Rain', 'Little Face' is an apology layered with gratitude, detailing reflections unforeseen in the past's present.
lyrics
So divine
You swept me up when all my life was going to shit
Swept the slate
I got to start a future, foundation saved
Foundation saved
You're purposed, I'm hiding
You knew what you wanted while I drifted inside
To waste a day
While leaves are green and falling, the light decays
The light decays
Now you cry while I, I'm undecided
While you try I, I'm making up my mind
While I propose to tell the truth
Avoid the words that mean the most
Because I don't know what I want
I lead you round in the dark
This damn unknown hurts you the most
I'm taking blows, let's call a truce
This I know, I loved you the most
Little face, little face
You're hiding, you're hiding
Little face, little face
You're hiding, you're hiding
Little face, little face
You're hiding, you're hiding
Little face, little face
You're hiding, you're hiding
You're hiding, you're hiding
