Little Person by Jon Brion
I'm just a little person.
One person in a sea.
Of many little people.
Who are not aware of me.
I do my little job.
And live my little life.
Eat my little meals.
Miss my little kid and wife.
And somewhere maybe someday.
Maybe somewhere far away.
I'll find a second little person.
Who will look at me and say.
I know you.
You're the one I've waited for.
Let's have some fun.
Life is precious.
Every minute.
And more precious with you in it.
So let's have some fun.
We'll take a road trip.
Way out West.
You're the one.
I like the best.
I'm glad I found you.
Like hanging round you.
You're the one.
I like the best.
Somewhere maybe someday.
Maybe somewhere far away.
Somewhere maybe someday.
Maybe somewhere far away.
Somewhere maybe someday.
Maybe somewhere far away.
I'll meet a second little person.
And we'll go out and play.

Am I the only one who thought this song was slightly hopeful? Sure, it dwells a lot on the insignificant subject of a human being in a vast, indifferent planet.
Yet, it then introduces a "second little person" - the wonder of human connection.
Albeit that, it is definitely a heartwrenching song. Especially in the context of the film.

Yet it even implies that waiting for that second person is foolish, in the funeral monologue.

The exact words are "somewhere, maybe someday... I'll find a second little person" implying that the singer/narrator hasn't actually found that second person. It's hopeful, but it may never happen.

I'm just a little comment.
A comment in a sea.
Of many little commenters.
Who are not aware of me.
