Watchin´ this sunset, yeah, man, it hit me I´m alive, but I ain´t really been livin´ Maybe flyin´ through this life so fast I´m missin´ The little things
Those moments when you swear you feel the clock stop And the answer seems as simple as a raindrop ´Cause you realize that we´re here on this big rock For the little things
Like an old Merle Haggard song Mama on the phone Midnight on a back porch Slow kiss on a dance floor Tiny diamond in your pocket A baby that needs rockin´ back to sleep If you´re askin´ me It´s the little things
The secret to life, hey, we all wanna find it
But the more I look, the more that I´m reminded What we want is always right there, hiding In all the little things
Like homemade ice cream in a bowl A jacket when it´s cold Fifth gear on a fast car New strings on a guitar A tiny diamond in your pocket A baby that needs rockin´ back to sleep If you´re askin´ me Yeah, it´s the little things
Take everythin´ and drop it For a baby that needs rockin´ back to sleep I guess all I really want to say Don´t let the big get in the way Of the little things, mmm
