Analysis of Little by Little
Christine Conant 1952 (United States)
Little by Little
One by One
You are breaking the
Walls down, that is.
Guarding my Heart
That I have put so
That My Heart wont
Be Broken Once Again
But the More we
Talk and get to know.
Each Other
Another Brick You
Have Torn Down to
Make My Heart
Whole Once Again.
