Life and career

1985–2006: Childhood and youth

Caillat was born in Malibu, California, and grew up in Newbury Park, California. Her father, Ken Caillat, co-produced Fleetwood Mac's Rumours (1977) and Tusk (1979) albums. When she was an infant, her parents gave her the nickname "Coco", which she would later name her debut album. Caillat took piano lessons as a child, but lacked significant inspiration until she turned 11 years old, when she became enthralled with Lauryn Hill's performance in Sister Act 2. She realized that she wanted to be a singer, and began taking vocal lessons, performing onstage for the first time in sixth grade. Since then she has covered the Roberta Flack song "Killing Me Softly", which had previously been covered by Lauryn Hill, and Hill's own "Tell Him".

The Little Things

by: Colbie Caillat

The little things you do to me
Are taking me over, I wanna show ya
Everything inside of me
Oh, like a nervous heart that is crazy beating
My feet are stuck here against the pavement
I wanna break free, I wanna make it
Closer to your eyes, get your attention
Before you pass me by
Back up, back up, take another chance
Don?t you mess up, mess up, I don?t wanna lose you
Wake up, wake up, this ain't just a thing that you
Give up, give up, don?t you say that I?d be
Better off, better off, sleeping by myself and wondering
If I'm better off, better off without you boy
And every time, you notice me
By holding me closely and saying sweet things
I don't believe that it could be
You speaking your mind and saying the real thing
My feet have broke free and I am leaving
I'm not gonna stand here, feeling lonely
But I don't regret it and I don't think
It was just a waste of time
Back up, back up, take another chance
Don?t you mess up, mess up, I don?t wanna lose you
Wake up, wake up, this ain't just a thing that you
Give up, give up, don?t you say that I?d be
Better off, better off, sleeping by myself and wondering
If I'm better off, better off without you boy
Don't just leave me hanging on
Don't just leave me hanging on
The little things, you do to me
Are taking me over, I wanna show ya
Everything inside of me
Oh, like a nervous heart that is crazy beating
My feet are stuck here against the pavement
I wanna break free, I wanna make it
Closer to your eyes, get your attention
Before you pass me by
Don't just leave me hanging on
Back up, back up, take another chance
Don?t you mess up, mess up, I don?t wanna lose you
Wake up, wake up, this ain't just a thing that you
Give up, give up, don?t you say that I?d be
Better off, better off, sleeping by myself and wondering
If I'm better off, better off without you boy
Don't just leave me hanging on
Don't just leave me hanging on
(The little things, all of the things you do to me)
Don't just leave me hanging on
(Drivin' me crazy crazy, yeah yeah, drivin' me crazy)
Don't just leave me hanging on
(The little things, all of the things you do to me)
