I believe in little things
That you can hardly see
Like honeycomb and spider webs
And starfish in the sea
I believe in little things
Like icy drops of rain
That melt into the morning mist
When winds are warm again
I believe in little things
Like colors in the sky
And noticing the waves roll in
And how the flowers die
Knowing they'll be back again
Whenever it's July
I believe in little things
Like you and me
And just how big
Little things can be
I hope I won't disturb you with this call
I'm just in town for such a little while
And I thought perhaps you'd like to hear the news
Jeannie's grades were the highest in the school
Billy sure does look a lot like you
I understand your other son does too
And Billy said tell mom I miss her so
These were some little things
I thought you'd like to know
Remember Sam and Peg who lived next door
With them it seemed we always laughed so much
Well Sam and Peg don't live there anymore
I understand they broke up just like us
The house we lived in now has been torn down
Of all the things we owned the last to go
A freeway now runs through that part of town
These were some little things that
I thought you'd like to know
These were some little things that
I hope I won't disturb you with this call I'm just in town for such a little while
And I thought perhaps you'd like to hear the news
Jeannie's grades were the highest in the school
Billy sure does look a lot like you I understand your other son does too
And Billy said tell dad I miss him so
These were some little things I thought you'd like to know
Remember Sam and Peg who lived next door
With them it seemed we always laughed so much
Well Sam and Peg don't live there anymore
I understand they broke up just like us
The house we lived in now has been torn down
Of all the things we owned the last to go
A freeway now runs through that part of town
These were some little things I thought you'd like to know
[ Dolly Parton ]
You never send me flowers or ever buy me candy
You never bring me pretty things when you come to see me
And you forgot my birthday oh I wish you could see
How I miss the little things that you don't do for me
You never say that I look nice or that you're proud of me
You overlook the little things that you should see
These little things are big enough to hurt but too small to make me want to leave
But I do miss the little things that you don't do for me
Now how can I miss flowers that never reached my door
How can I taste candy that's still at the candy store
These little things mean a lot to me to you they may be silly
But I do miss the little things that you don't do for me
Yes I miss the little things that you don't do for me
You kiss me awake in the mornin' , now what a way to start the day
With love notes that you leave me, written in your own special way
You call me up for nothin', I hear your voice on the line
We start talkin' 'bout lovin', you get to me every time
It's those little things you do that make me love you so
Little things that only you and I could ever know
You don't have to lay the whole wide world here at my feet, oh no
It's those little things you do that mean the most to me
Lyin' in the bed beside you, touchin' in the middle of the night
No you don't have to do any talkin' to tell me everything is all right
It's those little things you do that make me love you so
Little things that only you and I will ever know
You don't have to lay the whole wide world here at my feet, oh no
It's those little things you do that mean the most to me
Little things mean a lot
Little things mean a lot
When I wanted someone to give me the world
You accepted me and smiled
And let me know that you were my girl
When I wanted fancy things
Gold watches, Diamond rings
You gave me your hand
'Cause only you could understand
Little things mean a lot
Appreciate what you got
If you give all what you have
It's forever we'll last
Don't sit around and wait for all
The great things in your life (sweetie)
Little things mean
Little things mean
Little things mean a lot
Giving me the best doesn't mean
Giving me happiness
I'll be satisfied with anything that comes close
I don't wanna settle for less but if I
Do I must confess I won't
Take it if it's not from your heart
Sometimes we get wrapped up
In all the fancy things but
Don't expect life to be perfect
(Vince Gill - Leslie Satcher)
Me and you and the Sunday paper spread all over the bed
A rose colored morning light all to ourselves
Hot coffee and the comic strips
Pillow talk and your fingertips
Laying down and loving till there's nothing left.
I'll take the little things
The simple pleasures that your sweet love brings
I'll take the little things with you.
--- Instrumental ---
Open the windows, leave that old fan on
Lay here with me till the sun is gone.
Don't say nothin' just let the time pass right on by
I want to hear you breathe, I want to brush your hair.
I don't care if we go anywhere
We've got everything we need right here in this room.
I'll take the little things
The simple pleasures that your sweet love brings
I'll take the little things with you.

I'll take the little things

Love can't be measured with diamonds and gold
Before you spend your money I oughta let you know
If you wanna get to me, try the little things
Don't need that mansion on top of the hill
Too many rooms with nothing to fill
You can't furnish me with the little things
Rub my back, make me laugh
Hold me while I dream
All it takes to make my day
Is to tell me you love me, little things
It doesn't matter what mood I'm in
I always melt when you begin
Whispering little things
Rub my back, make me laugh
Hold me while I dream
All it takes to make my day
Is to tell me you love me
Oh, little things
Rainy walks, a midnight talk
Dance me on your feet
Hold me close, don't let go
All I'll ever need is a single rose
A kiss hello, that smile upon your face
The tender way, you say my name
Takes my breath away
Little things, oh yeah, aha
Love can't be measured with diamonds and gold
All I'll ever need, oh, is little things
Well, when the sun goes down at the end of the day
I want to see you again, I've got to find a way
Just to hear those little things you say
The way you touch me baby, the way you squeeze me tight
And when you hold me darlin' all through the night
Those little things make me feel all right
(Little things) like the way you kiss
(Little things) that I can't resist
(Little things) make me feel so fine
I've got to have your lovin' honey all the time
(Little things) ooh, when we touch
(Little things) you know they mean so much
(Little things) never make me blue
I love those little things you do
I've got a fever baby and it's burnin' hot
I'm gonna give you my love, everything I've got
Cause those little things sure mean a lot
(Little things) like the way you kiss
(Little things) that I can't resist
(Little things) make me feel so fine
I've got to have your lovin' honey all the time
(Little things) ooh, when we touch
(Little things) you know they mean so much
(Little things) never make me blue
I love those little things you do
(Little things) like the way you kiss
(Little things) that I can't resist
(Little things) make me feel so fine
I've got to have your lovin' honey all the time
(Little things) ooh, when we touch
(Little things) you know they mean so much
(Little things) never make me blue
I love those little things you do
I love those little things you do
I love those little things you do
Little things mean a lot
Little things mean a lot
When I wanted someone to give me the world
You accepted me and smiled
And let me know that you were my girl
When I wanted fancy things
Gold watches, Diamond rings
You gave me your hand
'Cause only you could understand

Little things mean a lot
Appreciate what you got

Giving me happiness
I'll be satisfied with anything that comes close

Do I must confess I won't
Take it if it's not from your heart

Don't expect life to be perfect
It don't come with static cling
[Chorus]
Well when the sun goes down
At the end of the day
I want to see you again
I've got to find a way
Just to hear those
Little things you say
The way you touch me baby
The way you squeeze me tight
And when you hold me darlin'
All through the night
Those little things

Yeah this song is dedicated to every kid who ever got picked last in gym class (this is for you)
To every kid who never had a date to no school dance(this is for you)
To everyone whose ever been called a freak (this is for you)
Here we go
What What Come on, What!
Ohhhhhhh(4x)
Like the time in school when we got free lunch and the cool kids beat us up
And the rich kids had convertibles and we had to ride the bus(55)
Like the time we made the baseball team but they still laughed at us(you still suck)
Like the time that girl broke up with me cuz I wasn't cool enough. TRICK!
(Chorus)
Thiiiings. Thiiiings.
Here we go.
The little things.Little things
They always hang around
Little things.Little things
They try to break me down
Little things.Little things
They just won't go away
Little things.Little things
Make me who I am today. GO!!
You wanna hate me now
But I won't stop now
Cuz I can't stop now!
Like the time mom went to the institute cuz she was breakin' down
Like the car we had that wouldn't start
We had to walk to get around (Hey can I getta ride)
And that same year on Christmas Eve
Dad went to the store (uhh I'll see you guys later)
We checked his room
His things were gone we didn't see him no more. DICK!
(Chorus)
What!What!What!What!
Little things(12x)
It's the whisper of the rain when we're sleeping
The familiar way the scent of you clings
In the coolness of the night
It's the little things
It's the honest way you ask how I'm feeling
And the way you still agree though I'm wrong
It's the little things in life
That carry me along
And it's the peace that I find
When it all slows down
And I feel something in the air
Keeps me from losing my mind
In this crazy world
When there's some little thing to share
'Cause all alone here with you
The little things will do
Everyone's always reaching for brass rings
As for me, I'm content with the view
When the afternoon shadows play
With the breezes at end of day
There is nothing I need to say
Let the fireworks start, let the band begin
Those things don't really matter at all
'Cause when the crowds all go home
And I look within, the extravagant gestures seem small
It's not castles and kings
It's the little things
It's not castles and kings
It's the little things
I know - some things
Well they don't feel right and I can't sit tight
Still there's some other things they can make you smile
they can make you high ...
Still there's some other things - make you turn your head
Make you change your direction If you check their worth
Well they're not too deep and you need some correction ...
I've got infatuation with the little things
They make me feel good - Why should I feel bad - ooh ...
I've got infatuation with the little things - little things
If you try you could; And then you won't be;
Feelin' that way no more no
Sun rise - moon rise
Well it all seems nice even though it's predictable
Little things that you do
Make me glad I'm in love with you
Little things that you say
Make me glad that I feel this way.
The way you smile, the way you hold my hand
And when I'm down you always understand.
You know I love those little things that I knew
The little things you whispered in my ear.
I know there ain't nobody else like you.
No one could do the little things you do.
Little things in my ear that you say
When there's no one near.
Little things that you do
Let me know that your love is true.
When we walk you like to hold my hand
And when we talk you tell me I'm your man.
You know I love those little things that I knew
The little things you whispered in my ear.
I know there ain't nobody else like you.
No one could do the little things you do.
Little things that you do
Make me glad I'm in love with you.
Little things that you say
Make me glad that I feel this way.
When we walk you like to hold my hand
And when we talk you tell me I'm your man.
You know I love those little things that I knew
The little things you whispered in my ear.
I know there ain't nobody else like you.
I hope I don't disturb you with this call I'm just in town for such a little while
And I thought perhaps you'd like to hear the news

The house we lived in now has been torn down of all the things we owned the last to go
A freeway now runs through that part of town
These were some little things I thought you'd like to know
These were some little things I thought you'd like to know
A piece of sky every night
Loaded on wrong and further from right
Spinning around two howling moons
'Cause they're always there whatever I do
The river is loaded, I've been there today
Took it some questions, she does me again
I'd die in your arms if you were dead too
Here comes a lie, we will always be true
Going up when coming down
Scratch away, away, away, away, away
It's the little things that kill
Tearing at my brain again
Oh, that little things that kill
The little things that kill
Bigger you give, bigger you get
We're boss at denial but best at forget
Cupboard is empty, we really need food
Summer is winter and you always knew
Going up when coming down
Scratch away, away, away, away, away
It's the little things that kill
Tearing at my brain again
Oh, that little things that kill
Tearing at my brain again
Oh, that little, little, little
Little, little, little
Little, little, little
I touch your mouth, my willy is food
Addicted to love, I'm addicted to fools, shit
I kill you once, I kill you again
We're starving and crude, welcome my friends to
The little things that kill
Tearing at my brain again
Oh, that little things that kill
Tearing at my brain again
Oh, that little, little, little
Little, little, little
Little, little, little
Here come the little things
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Been around the whole world, still ain't seen
Nothin' like my neighborhood
And of all the fancy satin and silk
My white cotton feels so good
Searched high and low for a place
Where I can lay my burdens down
Ain't nothin' in the whole wide world
Like the peace that I have found
(It's the little things) It's the little things
And the joy they bring
(The little things) It's the little things
And joy they bring
As simple as a phone call just to make it known
That you're gonna be a little late
Pure as a kiss on a cheek in a word
That everything will be okay
Call in the mornin' from my little sister
Singin' to me, "Happy Birthday"
In the quest for fortune and fame
Don't forget about the simple things
(It's the little things) It's the little things
And the joy they bring, yeah
(The little things) It's the little things
And joy
Give me some good food, give me cute shoes
Give me some piece of mind
Bring me some sunshine, bring me some blue sky
Runnin' 'round in circles, lost my focus
Lost sight of my goal
I do this for the love of music
Not for the glitter and gold
Got everything that I pray for
Even a little more
When I ask to learn humility
This is what I was told
(It's the little things) It's the little things
And the joy they bring, it's the little things
(The little things) It's the little things
Oh...hee...
Give me my guitar, give me a bright star
Give me some good news, give me some cute shoes
Give me Atlanta, give me Savannah
give me my peace of mind
Give me some Stevie, give me some Donny
Give me my daddy, give me my mommy
Pour me some sweet tea, spoonful of honey
Da da da da da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da da da da
Misery's turning my luck around
Framed all the faces on my way down
I don't have a reason, a reason to lie
The dull pain is screaming to be left behind, oh
It's never easy to see your past
Unfold before you, the outcast
I don't have a reason, a reason to cry
Caterpillars turn into rare butterflies, oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
The little things we hide
The little things inside
I don't wanna show them and I'll be alright
Oh oh oh
Da da da da da da da da da da da
Humility's easing my ego down
The past holds the truth like a lost and found
There's no need to worry, no need to be scared
'Cause little things will come along and life's never fair, no
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
The little things we hide
The little things inside
I don't wanna show them that I'll be alright
Oh oh oh
Da da da da da da da da da da da
Everything is gonna be ...
Everything is alright
Everything is gonna be ...
Everything is alright, is alright, is alright
The little things we hide
The little things inside
I don't wanna show them and we'll be alright
The little things we hide
The little things inside
I don't wanna show them and I'll be alright
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Da da da da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da da da

Bring me my peace of mind
Give me some Stevie, give me some Donny
Give me my daddy, give me my mommy
Pour me some sweet tea, spoonful of honey
I don't need no Hollywood
take some time out to remember
what you kept and gave away
when you came into my life
did you stop
to think twice
little things pile up and turn into bigger things
and i want you to notice (this)
and i want you to try
don't cut me off
don't cut it out
don't give away
what you can live without
don't let it sit
just spit it out
don't hide yourself
where no one can find you
don't hesitate
just let me know
don't keep it all to yourself
i'll try to understand you
don't hesitate
just let me know
don't keep it all to yourself
i'll try to understand
When I'm sittin' on a toilet in a house that I don't know
Lookin' all around me where'd the toilet paper go
Feelin' real uneasy, feelin' real uncertain
Gotta wipe my ass again with a plastic shower curtain
It's those little things, those itty-bitty things
It's those little things like that, that piss me off
When I pick up on a woman, I take her home to bed
She takes her clothes off gets on her knees and
I ask her what her name was told me it was Venus
Well, I reach down between her legs
Oh good Lord, it's those little things, those itty-bitty things
That woman had a big thing it ain't no little thing, it pissed me off
She had a dick and can't you understand that?
There's so many things that we miss in our everyday lives
We're so busy hustling, bustling chasing far away dreams
We forget the little things
Like blue skies, green eyes and our babies growing
Like rainbows, fresh snow and the smell of summer
We forget to live
Give us eyes like children so we live each day as others
We're so sure we know so much that we forget to listen
Then we wonder fickle things
Like cheap thrills fast fuel and constant consumption
Like TV, CDs and cars that speak our names
We forget to live
There's so many things that we miss in our everyday lives
We're so busy hustling, bustling chasing far away dreams
We forget the little things
Like blue skies, green eyes and our babies growing
Like rainbows, fresh snow and the smell of summer
Catching a flight from LA it's been three weeks I've seen your face
Touching down at a quarter past 3. Lucky you, you must be home asleep
I wait for my bags - they're taking so long. 'Bout to call a cab to take me home
That's I feel a touch from behind. Turn around you're right before my eyes.
Standing there - I can't believe you came
It's 3 o'clock in the morning and it's pouring rain
There's something about the kinda love that you bring
Can't put my finger on it - guess it must be...
All these things
The little things that you do
They make my heart beat for you
All these things
The little things mean so much
You remind me each time we touch
Of all the little things
I sleep through the morning and wake up at two, just can't wait to spend the day with you
I head downstairs and the first thing I see is a note there waiting saying
"there's a concert tonight I thought you'd want to go
I hear dat Alicia's got a real good show"
Sometimes it seems you think of everything
You never cease to amaze. You know I'm loving
All these things
The little things that you do
They make my heart beat for you
All these things
The little things mean so much
You remind me each time we touch
Of all the little things
BGV (All these things you do keep me loving you)
In an ocean of feelings
I don't know what to do
Allthough I am
The one who left
I just keep thinking of you
It makes me want to cry
To know how I treated you
I'm so sorry
For what I did
I'll never find another love like you
Chorus
Little things you did
The sweet things you said
You made me feel so special
I just can't forget
The little things you did
The sweet things you said
You made me feel so special
Wake me up before you leave
Id like to hear your voice one more time
If you do I can fall back to sleep
And drift off to dream with a smile
Ill miss you while youre gone
When youre out Ill get the laundry done
Some times all it takes
Is an unexpected I love you
To wrap your arms around the one that you love
Thats what its all about
Its the little things that count
So when you find that special one
To stand beside you for the rest of your life
Those little things come naturally
A love like this is one of a kind
Even when Im not with you
I can feel your love in everything you do
Chorus X 2
Little things you do lead me on
Weak in those knees
Till all my will is gone
And you don't want this heart
No, you go too far
The way you use your eyes mesmerizes me
With those lips and that kiss
I'm gonna be cast in your arms
Taken by your charms
And all your little things
I can't hold back, baby
Please, please, please, won't you save me?
With just one touch or I'll go crazy
Little things
I can't hold back, baby
Please, please, please, won't you save me?
With just one touch or I'll go crazy
Little things you do turn me on
Makes me feel like you're the one I want
Honey, there's no doubt
Don't wanna live without
All your little things
Honey, there's no doubt
Don't wanna live without
I don't care what anybody thinks
I will stare when everybody blinks
I don't mind the difference that they see
Cause He loves
Every little thing
Every little thing
Every little thing
Every little thing
Every little thing
About me....
I believe that everybody bleeds
Sticks and stones aren't what has cut so deep
I won't buy the hate they sell for free
You can't carry the weight of the world
I won't carry the weight of the world
I can tell the hell that you've been through
It won't make a difference what they do
They'll still tell you all the lies are true
But I love
Every little thing
Every little thing
Every little thing
Every little thing
Every little thing
I got home another night alone
Maybe I should call you up
Baby I was wrong
Such a fool couldn't see
What was right in front of me
Why did I leave
I was wrong wantin to be alone
I guess I never really got it
But now I know
It's not about me always gettin my way
It's not about always lookin for a change
I figured it out
The second you walked away (walked away)
Cause it's all about the little things
All about discovering
All about the way you got me
It's all about the way I felt when you came around
And the way you picked me up when I was down
See it's all about the little things
All about remembering
All about the way it used to be
You see it's all about the little things
How I miss the little things
I took a ride gotta get outside
Rolling the windows down
Tryin to clear my mind
Where are you could you be
Feeling the same as me ooh
It's not about me needin anymore space girl
It's not about and everything will be okay
I figured it out
But then it was just too late
Cause it's all about
It's all about the little things
All about discovering
All about the way you got me
It's all about the way I felt when you came around
And the way you picked me up when I was down
See it's all about the little things
All about remembering
All about the way it used to be
You see it's all about the little things
How I miss the little things
I should be getting over it (over)
Thought I wouldn't give up
But look at me now I'm such a wreck
Over cause I couldn't see the big picture
No no no no
Cause I couldn't see the big picture
No no no no
And I just couldn't see it
Cause it's all about
Cause it's all about the little things
All about discovering
All about the way you got me
It's all about the way I felt when you came around
And the way you picked me up when I was down
See it's all about the little things
All about remembering
All about the way it used to be
You see it's all about the little things
How I miss the little things
Cause it's all about the little things
All about discovering
All about the way you got me
It's all about the way I felt when you came around
And the way you picked me up when I was down
See it's all about the little things
All about remembering
All about the way it used to be
You see it's all about the little things
How I miss the little things
No no no no
How I miss the little things
All about the little things
I said it's all about the little things
Cry your eyes out
A lesson left unlearned
I wish I was airborne
Then I could watch it turn
They've taken everything
Hung us out to dry
They've taken every thing
Playing enemy
This is thought control
You're a greasy little thing
You'll scream before you sing
And you make a lot of noise
You lied about everything
You greasy little thing
I got with the program
I tried to fall in line
I wish I was drowning
Than I could watch you burn
They've taken everything
Hung us out to dry
They've taken every thing
Now you're...
You're a sneaky little thing
You'll scream before you sing
And you make a lot of noise
You lied about everything
You sneaky little thing
When the tide rolls in
When the trapdoor starts to swing
When the swans have sung
I was never told about those little things you do
I was heading down another dead end avenue,
But it just the Little things,
I hold on to the little things,
I, I, I,
I don't understand,
How could this be true?
You told I'm the one,
Then you broke my heart in two,
It's the little things,
Oh the stupid little things,
I can't let them go,
Then I gave in you took control,
And I was the last to know,
The more you learn the less we grow,
Tell me why the dark side of your smile,
Keeps me in denial,
Oh
I am getting bored to boredom,
Everything thats new,
Living in the past is how I keep my point of view,
It's the little things,
Oh the stupid little things,
I can't let them go,
Then I gave in you took control,
And I was the last to know,
The more you learn the less we grow,
Tell me why the dark side of your smile,
Keeps me in denial,
I know this road has to end,
All of the signs says driving too hard
break again
And I was the last to know
(know, know, know, know )
It's the little things,
Oh the stupid little things,
I can't let them go,
Then I gave in you took control,
And I was the last to know,
The more you learn the less we grow,
Tell me why the dark side of your smile,
Keeps me in denial,
Oh

Words and Music by Bobby Goldsboro
Little things that you do make me glad I'm in love with you
Little things that you say make me glad that I feel this way
The way you smile, the way you hold my hand
And when I'm down you always understand
You know I love those
Little things in my ear that you say when there's no one near
Little things that you do let me know that your love is true
When we walk, you like to hold my hand
And when we talk you tell me I'm your man
You know I love those
Little things that I hear, the little things you whisper in my ear
I know there ain't nobody else like you
No one could do the little things you do-oo
Little things that you do make me glad I'm in love with you
Little things that you say make me glad that I feel this way
When we walk, you like to hold my hand
And when we talk you tell me I'm your man
You know I love those
Little things that I hear, the little things you whisper in my ear
I know there ain't nobody else like you
Sorting all the lights and darks,
Making sure our love won't lose that spark.
You really didn't have to.
Funny pictures that you take,
Dinner out instead of shake and bake.
You really didn't have to.
Movies and magazines,
Filling our heads with dreams.
Love is the little things.
Love changes everything.
Picking me up after work,
Putting up with all my silly quirks.
You really didn't have to.
Saying that my cooking is great,
While you try to hide a stomach ache.
i watched you walk away today,
i wonder if you thought to stay.
remember when we stayed up
watched the sunrise as it came up,
painting all the brilliant colors,
we had it all we were the greatest lovers.
now i'm away from you,
but i won't forget
the little things you do.
i found the note that you left for me,
so i open it up, and start to read
it says, "dear love, i miss you,
i hope you know i won't forget you
even if we're worlds away,
i'll always be your girl
and that will stay"
all of my love is for you,
i won't forget
the little things you do.
remember when we stayed up,
watched the sunrise as it came up,
painting all the brilliant skies,
i had it all when you were by my side.
i miss you
I said a shoo be do be do be
I mean a ru be do be do be
I mean a do be do be do be
That's how you make me feel
3 little words that you say to me
Everything you do is incredibly amazing
In every single way-ay, yeah
3 little words you whisper in my ear
3 things you say when I'm in fear
Don't worry, don't run
Cos I, Cos I am here
[Chorus]
Shoo be do be do believe this
It's as simple as our first kiss
Ru be do be do believe me now
It's the little things that
Shoo be do be do believe this
It's as simple as our first kiss
Ru be do be do believe me now
It's the little things that count
Sweet little things like opening the door
Loving little things no one's done before
These little things make me love you more
Crazy little things only you can do
Like making me smile when I don't want to
You are the one guy, the one guy
I never wanna lose
[Chorus]
Shoo be do be do believe this
It's as simple as our first kiss
Ru be do be do believe me now
It's the little things that
Shoo be do be do believe this
It's as simple as our first kiss
Ru be do be do believe me now
It's the little things
And you take my hand
And we run away
And we dance in the moonlight
And kiss in the rain
And you make me smile
All the time
And the little things you do
Make me glad that you are mine
[Chorus]
Shoo be do be do believe this
It's as simple as our first kiss
Ru be do be do believe me now
It's the little things that
Shoo be do be do believe this
It's as simple as our first kiss
Ru be do be do believe me now
It's the little things that count
I said a shoo be do be do be
I mean a ru be do be do be
That's how you make me feel
I said a shoo be do be do be
I mean a ru be ru be ru be do
I said I do be do be do
Your first breath
Your first pain
Your first tears
Your first year
Your first smile
Your first word
Your first step
Whatever's next
Your first school
Your first crush
Your first kiss
Consider this
It's not just happenstance
Or force of circumstance
God bless the little things
That make the bigger things
God bless the little things
That make the bigger things
Your first love
Your first lover
Your first time
Was like no other
Your first fight
Your first heartache
Your first regret
You can't forget
Your first bar
Your first drink
Your best friend
The bathroom sink
It's not just happenstance
Or force of circumstance
God bless the little things
That make the bigger things
God bless the little things
That make the bigger things
Your first flat
Your first debt
Your first taste
Of the worst case
Your first job
Your first boss
Your first paycheck
Now let's get wrecked
Your first house
Your first car
Your first child
And that's the story so far
It's not just happenstance
Or force of circumstance
God bless the little things
That make the bigger things
God bless the little things
You kill me softly with suicide eyes
Make me lose sight of all my foolish pride
I get mad, confused
I should leave but I don't want to
I miss the way you say my name
I miss the way you say my name
Chorus:
It's the little things that make me feel like a woman
Drive me wild and always keep me comin'
Back for more, there's never enough It's the little
things that keep me in love with you
To tell the truth the way you do the things you do
I swear I feel like a queen
And I realize now that there's so much more to life than
just the finer things
Don't ever go away and don't ever change
Don't ever go away and don't ever change
Chorus
The way you smile when you turn on the light
The way you say you need to see my eyes
The way you ask me to tell you all of my dreams
That's what I like, that's all I really need
It's summer, everybody's out
And you're right over there
I'm staring while you play around
With that pencil in your hair
It's sad
In your eyes
I'm just one of the guys
I'm so into you
You don't have a clue
There's nothing you can do to stop me now
You got me falling
Through noticing the little things you do
Putting a hold right over me
Funny as it seems
You make me dream
Doing the little things, those little things you do
I saved up for binoculars
I bought them last weekend
To watch you playing badminton
With all your slutty friends
Maybe it's time I gave up, drew the line
My friends say i should
I wish that I could
But there's nothing they can do to stop me now
You got me falling
Through noticing the little things you do
Putting a hold right over me
Funny as it seems
You make me dream
Doing the little things, those little things you do
I call up your house
But I'm always outta luck
Keep hanging around
But that's never good enough
And you don't reply when i talk to you
I shout at you
But you don't even blink an eye
It makes me wonder why
You got me falling
Through noticing the little things you do
Putting a hold right over me
Funny as it seems
You make me dream
Doing the little things, those little things you do
You got me falling
Through noticing the little things you do
Putting a hold right over me
Funny as it seems
You make me dream
Doing the little things, those little things you do
Doing the little things, those little you do, do, do [x3]
Some people get aggravated
Some things just get exaggerated bad
When it’s all in their minds
I’ve found that some situations
If you let them can get you aging fast
And old before your time
And you’ll never even notice you’re doing fine.
Now I know that sometimes life cheats you
And I know that sometimes you need to cry
To deal with what life brings
But until those days come, don’t stress the little things.
Sometimes you’ve gotta let things be
Sometimes you’re only wasting your energy
The bigger picture’s so much more than it seems
So keep your head up and don’t stress the little things.
Now some people, their always frazzled
Cause they worry like every little thing
Is the end of the world.
They can’t sleep, they think they’re getting nowhere
They’re frustrated cause life just won’t go their way
And they don’t know where to turn
When there’s really only one thing they need to learn
Sometimes you’ve gotta let things be.
Sometimes you’ve gotta close your eyes and believe
Today is all we have and all that we need
So just keep moving and don’t sweat the little things
Keep your eyes face forward and don’t stress the little things.
Sometimes you’ve gotta let things be
Stay on track, don’t look back, and just don’t sweat the little things
It’s not up to you and me, keep your eyes on the prize and
just don’t sweat the little things
You can’t see what’s coming next, do your best and just don’t stress
Well, there’s so many things you can’t control
So just hold to the goal and the rest let it go.
if i could go anywhere i would go
down where my soul is empty
so i wouldnt bare the weight of you
if i could be anything
i'd be a bird with wooden wings
i wouldn't fly
but i wouldn't break
chorus:
oh oh oh
its these little things
you are gone
and now i'm free
i can do anything
there's pretty flowers on the table
there is smoke coming out of my mouth
its blowing out
the window now
if i keep pushing them all away
i'll have nothing left to say
i'll be a blank, a blank page
but when depression
it gets in me
it's makes it so i can barely speak
and i can't say
hey come back please
For all the times we fell in love
the little things that made us smile
For whatever made you and me
believe in wonders for a while
For all the luck we haven´t planned
the little thoughts that gave us wings
And for the melodies in songs
that only lovers ought to sing
Doo-doo-doo doo
doo-doo-doo doo-
doo-doo doo-doo
doo-doo-doo doo
For every dream that seemed so far
and for the ones that come so close
For all the little steps we take
and for the long and winding roads
For those who wipe our tears away
and for the laughter that won't end
That turns the night into a day
and sometimes people into friends
the little things we´ve said and done
they all remind me of nothing but love
the little things for everyone
The little things we´ve said and done
they all remind me of nothing but love
for all the pain that made us strong
and for the love that made us weak
For those who helped us travelling on
a sometimes dark and empty street
Doo-doo-doo doo
doo-doo-doo doo-
doo-doo doo-doo
doo-doo-doo doo
For every word that´s left unsaid
and those that we don´t have to say
For all the things we once forgot
although they never fade away
For everyone who still believes
the reason why we're not alone
The ones who join, the ones who leave
and for the place that we call home
the little things we´ve said and done
they all remind me of nothing but love
the little things for everyone
The little things we´ve said and done
they all remind me of nothing but love
And I never get enough
The little things (things)
they all remind me of nothing but love
the little things for everyone
The little things we´ve said and done
they all remind me of nothing but love
