American Idol Season 4 and Grammy Award winner Carrie Underwood’s sophomore album, Carnival Ride, is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated releases of 2007. The carrier single off Carnival Ride is titled So Small, and was serviced to country radio less than 24 hours ago. So Small, a country power ballad co-written by Carrie Underwood, will no doubt help Carrie Underwood set country airwaves on fire once again.
So Small is the first Carrie Underwood single in which she shares a writing credit. In an interview with Beville Darden of AOL Music, she says So Small is about how “people invest so much of their time and energy into things that aren’t really important, and you don’t really realize that until it’s too late.”
So Small currently stands at #11 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs, #98 on the Billboard Hot 100, and #67 on the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay. It debuted at #14 on the Canadian Hot 100, her best debut ever on that chart. You can now download So Small on I-Tunes; purchasing the So Small single today will help raise its Hot 100 rank as early as two weeks from now. (Once again, thanks, Berg.)

Carrie Underwood So Small lyrics after the jump
SO SMALL Lyrics
Carrie Underwood
What you got if you ain’t got love?
The kind that you just wanna give away
It’s okay to open up
Go ahead and let the light shine through
I know it’s hard on a rainy day
You wanna shut the world out and just be left alone
But don’t run out on your faith
Coz sometimes that mountain you’ve been climbing is just a grain of sand
And what you’ve been out there searching for forever is in your hand
When you figure out love is all that matters after all
It sure makes everything else seem so small
It’s so easy to get lost inside
A problem that seems so big at the time
is like a river that’s so wide
It swallows you whole
Why you sitting around thinking about what you can’t change
and worrying about all the wrong things
And time’s flying by
Moving so fast
You’d better make it count
Coz you can’t get it back
Coz sometimes that mountain you’ve been climbing is just a grain of sand
And what you’ve been out there searching for forever is in your hand
When you figure out love is all that matters after all
It sure makes everything else seem so small
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Sometimes that mountain you’ve been climbing is just a grain of sand
And what you’ve been out there searching for forever is in your hand
Oh and when you figure out love is all that matters after all
It sure makes everything else
Oh, it sure makes everything else seem so small
Awesome!! Everything from Ms. Underwood is A#1. Great job Carrie!!!
Great Job Carrie, another awesome song. Keep up the good work. Your cousin Tara is our cousin by marraige and I know she and other family are very proud of you!
OMG thanks and the lyrics are good..and love the new single, but i think its too some heart but i can be wrong. but it is different from her previous album…
weak lyrics, but carrie makes it sound good. it will go to number one because of american idol. not because country music fans.
No matter what she sings she is amazing and i love the lyrics i love Carrie Underwood and I am her #1 fan!!!!!
The post before mine is a little, well a lot wrong. She won Idol a while ago. She’s pretty much settled into country. It’s a safe bet that country fans will indeed launch this song.
OMGSH! well this song is just like all the others… AMAZING!!! Carrie is just #1 i love all of her songs some people may say they are not that good but i say they are terrific.

WOW!! Another hit for Carrie! Beautiful song where once again she showcases her powerful voice.
The lyrics may be weak if you haven’t climbed that mountain or crossed that river when you didn’t have the strength to do it on your own…great job for Carrie…once again.
Beautiful, tender, but powerful lyrics. You are wise beyond your years, Carrie. God has blessed you with an amazing voice and a beauty that comes from within - you shine - like a true star. We love you.
What an amazing voice she has and she sure can sing anything. This song really shows her character and will surely be another #1!

I love Carrie Underwood so much! I think all of her music is so good and i love the lyrics! Way to go Carrie!
i want to congratulate the writers of “so small”. its an awesome song!
I heard this song on the radio last night for the first time and I knew exactly who it was singing. I love Carrie’s voice and this song has powerful lyrics. My boyfriend (of three years) and I just broke up and this song definitely made me cry because I’m emotional and because the song has a lot of truth to it. Great song Carrie, keep them coming :)!
Carrie is amazing. I think she may be settled in country music, but I love her for Idol, not for the country music. She can sing anything so I wouldn’t be shocked if her new cd included something other than country. On Idol, she did prove she can sing anything, and I think she is capable of singing some things that are different from country. I LOVE YOU CARRIE she is better than Kelly Clarkson by miles and she will definitely succeed in everything.
Don’t like anything Carrie does. It all sounds the same to me.
Something about this song gives me chills when I hear it. Beautifully sung; definitely a CMT and/or Grammy winner.
I’ve listened to her new song over and over again. I love the lyrics. Can really relate to the song. Her voice is even more amazing. She keeps growing as an artist.
Carrie Underwood has a amazing voice and she is very beautiful. I love her first album and can’t wait for the new one to be released. Thanks for such great music!!!
That song is FANTASTIC just like all your music u r an AWSOME singer!i had that song memorized the day it came out on the radio! YOUR #1 FAN 4 EVER!!!!!!!!!!!
This song is amazing!!! I just heard it for the first time today and I cried my eyes out!! It is so true!! I can really relate to it!! Carrie Underwood has an amazing voice! There is not one song that she sings that I don’t like!
What a beautiful song. This will be her greatest hit.
I have fallen in love with Carrie’s voice. She has talent that I wish that I’d have. She had the courage to go to American Idol and sing with her soul. Everyone is telling me that I need to go onto AI and wi, but I just don’t have the courage to. I know I have talent but Carrie makes anyonw look like a fool when it comes to singing your heart out. I love Carrie and I love the songs she sings. God Bless you girl! I just wish I would get the chance to meet you.. Keep up the soul girl.
Absolutely amazing. If she thinks she can use the same tactics to earn her 2nd Grammy then shes right cuz once again she is gonna prove to the world why she IS an American Idol.
Thanks so much for providing this awesome site! I especially appreciate the lyrics. While I was listening to Carrie’s single “So Small,” I noticed a couple of minor differences in the lyrics, so I thought I would mention them:
The second verse should say
“You wanna shut the world out and just be LEFT alone”
The second verse should say
“A problem that seems so big AT THE TIME”
Again, thank you for providing this site!
Oops! I meant to write the THIRD verse should say
“A problem that seems so big AT THE TIME”
OMG. CARRIE UNDERWOOD IS THEE BEST SINGER IN THIS
WORLD. IVE ALREADY SEEN YOU IN CONCERT AND YET
A MILLION MORE TO COME. YOUR AMAZING. AND I KNOW
ALL YOUR SONGS BY HEART EVEN YOUR NEW ONE “SO SMALL”.
ALL OF YOUR SONGS HAVE MEANINGS. KEEP COMING GIRL!!

EXCELLENT SONG LOVE CARRIE UNDERWOOD GREATEST LOVE HER LOVE HER LOVE HER
I absolutely adore this song! It’s inspiring. I love love love Carrie Underwood and just when I think she can’t top herself she does!
wow, I love the melody of this song. Carrie is awesome.The lyrics have been done to death though.I dont know if she wrote the song or what, but I’m getting tired of hearing “climb that mountain” and “It lies in your hands” and “loves all that matters”. Hey… wait a minute..loves all that matters?…. I should write that down, good title for a new song.
Carries new single makes me think about all the time that I waste thinking about things that really don’t matter. I cried the first time I heard it thinking that that song was written for me. Much luck to Carrie You are in a good spot!
I absolutely love this song!!!! I really enjoy all of Carries songs.It’s so great to see how her spiritual maturity shines through her. She does have an amazing gift in singing and the messages through her songs are inspiring.
