The Little Things

As we lay in bed
She sighed and said, "It's the little things"
I went all Joe Pesci
"Are you messing with me about the little things?"

It's the little things that save us
Penny slots down in Vegas
My old lucky Expos cap
A Montreal long distance chat

It's the little things that grace us
Replaying the same old phases
My grandson wondered why the sky was blue
You know your dad asked me that too

It's the little things that save us
Penny slots down in Vegas
My old lucky Expos cap
A Montreal long distance chat

It's the little things
The little things

It's the little things that take us through the stages
Filling up our lives back pages
School nights awake way too late
Waltzing in the kitchen to Tom Waits

So lets forget about all our prescriptions
And all our aches and pains
Growing old, going lame
They're just the little things

It's the little things that save us
Penny slots down in Vegas
My old lucky Expos cap
A Montreal long distance chat
