The Little Things

You’re working hard starting early too
That trouser suit looks like it’s wearing you
Get in your car, work ten hours straight
And don’t get home ‘til it’s far too late
Cause and effect
Why’s it so hard to see
What ties you up and what can set you free
What you control and what is meant to be
Sometimes you have to take it slow
You move too fast, you miss the show
The moment’s gone before you know
The kiss, the smile, the hand you hold
These are the things
Things a life is made of
The little things a life is made of
These are the things
Things a life is made of
The little things
The world’s on fire, it’s hard to catch your breath
You’re kicking ass, and then you’re scared to death
We’re on a ride, don’t know when it will end
I want to feel every bump and bend
Cause and effect
Why is it so hard to see
What ties you up, what can set you free
Sometimes you have to take it slow
You move too fast, you miss the show
The moment’s gone before you know
The kiss, the smile, the hand you hold
These are the things
Things a life is made of
The little things a life is made of
These are the things
Things a life is made of
The little things
That life is made of
That life is made of
That life is made of
