about

"Thumbelina" was written by Blake Charleton, and came to fruition via some sessions done in the AKU rehearsal space / recording lab in 2009. The lyrics are based on Disney's Thumbelina character— a small girl the size of a thumb.

lyrics

You're always walking
You're always walking the other way
I climb up the tall hills to see you get by
to wave you goodbye, oh my love goodbye.

You're always talking
You only talk to the rain and the clouds
They never talk to you, I'll see you go down
See you go down, not so loud or proud.

Now you're living with the moles.
After swimming with the toads.
'Cuz your lilly pad wasn't strong enough
to hold you up
What bad luck, what bad luck.

Thumbelina, where are you hiding
in the grass so long?
Been trying to find you, before the sun sets
before I have to go home.
Go home.

So
close
to catching you
