The tiny things, the small things, the ones we don't see 'till their gone
When something's done we remember the stuff that we never noticed, and now miss a ton
Remember what this is saying and know how much they try
Because in the end, the things you overlook are the things that make you cry
Tumbled sheets, rainbow shoes and comic cons
Single beds meant for couples, lonely dusks and hopeful dawns
Vodka and schnapps, broken promises and mixed bags
Penny jars, piled dishes, unreturned clothes that still have the tags
It's the small things that make us happy
And the small things that makes us lonely
And the small things that make life seem so big
Never further than a phone call and a goosebump shiver away
Lean against me and know that I'll never be too far away
Don't forget all we've promised and all we've said
Let me know what's swimming around in your head
Sunrise, it's the start of a new day
Because you know I'm never further than a phone call and a goosebump shiver away.
The jingle of your keys, the sound of your step, the curve of your smile
The smell of your shirt, the rest of your head, the voice that makes me want to stay a while
The laughing eyes, the bad habits, the impeccable taste
The vanilla ice, the way-too-tall, the feeling that maybe you're too slow paced
It's the small things that make me love you
And the small things that make me hate you
And the small things that make this mean something more
Never further than a phone call and a goosebump shiver away
Lean against me and know that I'll never be too far away
Don't forget all we've promised and all we've said
Let me know what's swimming around in your head
Sunrise, it's the start of a new day
Because you know I'm never further than a phone call and a goosebump shiver away.
As a wise guy once said, "all the small things"
And nothings sweeter, then to hear you sing
Without the little things, we would all be nowhere
And sometimes, sometimes, I wonder why you even care
A sunset, a flower, a butterfly frozen in time
A smile, a picture, a brand new penny, a brand new dime
A warm summer night, a dusty old book, a city sidewalk block
A snowy walk to nowhere, a new piece of art, a heartfelt late night talk
It's the small things that help us through the day
And the small things that hurt us beyond belief
And the small things that make us who we are
Never further than a phone call and a goosebump shiver away
Lean against me and know that I'll never be too far away
Don't forget all we've promised and all we've said
Let me know what's swimming around in your head
Sunrise, it's the start of a new day
Because you know I'm never further than a phone call and a goosebump shiver away.
