Lyrics
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I'm little again, the sun is bright, Mama's the strongest in the world again
I'm afraid of dogs and being alone in the flat again
And the trees are so big, unfamiliar bad words
Shall we play hide and seek? I'm like I used to be, grass up to my waist
[Chorus]
I'm the one who can't reach the floor with my feet
Or is it the floor that can't reach my feet?
Those I thought were my enemies
Just making honey, just making honey
That's me, only the kids shake their heads
They don't recognise me, they say they can't help me.
I'm stronger now, and now I won't go to my mum's bed.
But the monsters didn't come, I waited all night for them.
[Verse 2]
I'm still happy, painting with brick shards
In my rubber boots, I'm not afraid to step in the spring creek.
Red apples fall down when the wind blows harder.
Hush, they're calling me to eat! I'm not hungry, but nobody cares.
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
It's winter again, they're taking me sledding, the snowman will wait till morning.
It's warm and it smells like a Christmas tree, and the cat's curled up in a ball.
There's my reflection in the balloon, the garland is flashing with coloured lights.
I'm sitting on a creaky chair, my feet can't reach the floor
[Chorus]
[End]

I'm sitting on a creaky chair, my feet can't reach the floor

I'm the one who can't reach the floor with my feet
Or is it the floor that can't reach my feet?
Those I thought were my enemies
Just making honey, just making honey
That's me, only the kids shake their heads
