Cricket, Little Cricket

Cricket little Cricket, livin' in my home
I got so busy running 'round I almost didn't know
But when my life is quiet and I can hear you sing
It suddenly reminds me there's a cricket here with me

'Cause when I wake in the deep dark alone
Stumbling around in the night
I listen for that little cricket chirp, she's telling me
It'll be alright
Everything's gonna be alright

Cricket little Cricket, I thought there was no room
My shelves are overflowing, my table laid with food
I thought my house was filled with everything I need
You found your way inside and now you're welcome company

'Cause when life seems kind of threadbare and thin
And doubt is all I know
I listen for that little cricket chirp, she's telling me
You are not alone
You are not alone

Cricket little Cricket, song upon my hearth
I am not deserving of this blessing in my heart
Why I'm such a lucky man I may never know
I am just so thankful for this cricket in my home

And when I walk in the high sunshine
And the storm clouds seem like a myth from long ago
I listen for that little cricket chirp, she's telling me
I told you so
I told you so
