Rock In This Pocket

Suzanne Vega

Excuse me

If I may

Turn your attention

My way

One moment

I won't plead

It isn't much

It's what I need



And what's so small to you

Is so large to me

If it's the last thing I do

I'll make you see



If you turn from me

You darken my sun

You snap that thin thread

I call my horizon

And I'd like to remind you

Of something small

That the rock in this pocket

Could cause your fall



And what's so small to you

Is so large to me

If it's the last thing I do

I'll make you see



So small to you

And so large to me

If its the last thing I do

I'll make you see



I might be out like a light

Extinguished in the throw

But I'll hit my mark

And you'll know

Because I'm really well acquainted

With the span of your brow

And if you didn't know me then

You'll know me now

You'll know me now



And what's so small to you

Is so large to me

If its the last thing I do

I'll make you see



So small to you

And so large to me

If it's the last thing I do

I'll make you see

Make you see

Make you see
