Story Behind The Song

Crossroad Y band's members come from different parts of the world and, like many other emigrants, left behind their loved ones in search of a better future. Two band members lost someone they loved, someone very dear to them while living thousands of miles away and not being able to say goodbye. In the lyrics of Funny Little Things, they express their dream of being there for their perishing friend and they live through the experience of saying goodbye through the magic of silence, accepting the fate and learning to let go.

Song Description

We all have or will lose someone we love, someone we care about. Sometimes we don't get to say goodbye. Funny Little Things is a story of a dear family member or a friend on their death bed, it is a tale of living a great distance apart and not being able to get there on time to say the final goodbye. But it is a story of hope and love as despite the sorrow we hold on to the memories that remain and the little things that we've learnt from the person we mourn that will guide us in our lives. The song is charged with emotions of deep love, sorrow but also of holding on to the funny little things that will always remind us of the person who had passed away.

Lyrics

Funny Little Things





A little magic silence knows

I'm gonna love you till time goes

There's no need to say a thing




Ain't it tragic when you fall

You say you're ready, heaven calls

Remember funny little things




And now I'm on my way

For as long as it will take

To bring you song an laughter

For if I hesitate

Then it may be too late to say

Those funny little things




Heartfelt memories, stories told

But on their faces sorrow shows

Voices carried by the wind




Light a fire when it snows

Upon your rock new flower grows

And he's a funny little thing




And now I'm on my way

For as long as it will take

To bring you song an laughter

For if I hesitate


Then it may be too late to say


Those funny little things





Your palm


So cold now


Silent tears fall


And in my arms


I hold on


As I learn to let go





And now I'm on my way





And now I'm on my way


For as long as it will take


To bring you song an laughter


For if I hesitate


Then it may be too late to say


Those funny little things (x2)
