Little Things
It's the little things that matter
Like the pretty wings on butterflies
They can't fly without them
They would die without them
That's how I feel about you
The way you steal my jacket when it's cold
And turn and hug me just to keep me warm
It doesn't really work, but I don't even mind it
'Cause you laugh at my jokes
When they're getting old
I hope we grow in the same way too
When you look closer
The little things matter the most
Like a bouquet that needs a flower
And a flower needs a seed
It's the seconds that make up eternity
That's you and me, mm, oh
That's you and me, yeah
Oh
It's the little things that matter
Like a grain of wheat at harvest time
Both nourishing and tasteful
Blowing in the wind, it looks so graceful
Reminds me of the way you move
You ask me questions even I don't know
To every movie seen and every show
It doesn't make no sense
But I kind of like it
'Cause you really think I'm funny
Unconditionally, you love me
I don't know what I'd do without you
When you look closer
The little things matter the most (little things matter the most)
Like a bouquet that needs a flower
And a flower needs a seed
It's the seconds that make up eternity
That's you and me, oh, oh
Oh, that's you and me, yeah, oh
Oh, oh
Oh no, oh no
Mmm
Breath of fresh air when I suffocate
In my head too much, you regulate
It's too busy, help me meditate
When I'm ill, you're what I take
Breath of fresh air when I suffocate
In my head too much, you regulate
It's too busy, help me meditate
When I'm ill, you're what I take
Breath of fresh air when I suffocate
In my head too much, you regulate
It's too busy, help me meditate
When I'm ill, you're what I take
Like the pretty wings on butterflies
They can't fly without them
They would die without them
That's how I feel about you
The way you steal my jacket when it's cold
And turn and hug me just to keep me warm
It doesn't really work, but I don't even mind it
'Cause you laugh at my jokes
When they're getting old
I hope we grow in the same way too
When you look closer
The little things matter the most
Like a bouquet that needs a flower
And a flower needs a seed
It's the seconds that make up eternity
That's you and me, mm, oh
That's you and me, yeah
Oh

Breath of fresh air when I suffocate
In my head too much, you regulate
It's too busy, help me meditate
When I'm ill, you're what I take
Breath of fresh air when I suffocate
In my head too much, you regulate
It's too busy, help me meditate
When I'm ill, you're what I take
