THE LITTLE THINGS Lyrics

[Intro]
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Oh yeah)

[Verse 1]
Save your money on the roses, baby
Just leave a daisy on the dashboard
Just pick me up in your old Bronco, baby
Don't gotta ride in on a white horse

[Pre-Chorus 1]
When you're younger they say it's a kiss in the rain
Throwin' rocks at a window

[Chorus]
But it's when we're in a crowded room, put your hand on my back
And waitin' on me in the morning with my coffee black
Back to the basics 'cause they're bigger than they seem, yeah
Give me that typical, simple love, it's the little things, mm
Yeah, it's the little things (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah)
It's the little things

[Verse 2]
It's knowin' when you need to pull mе closer
And when you need to give mе my space
It's wine and vinyl, my head on your shoulder
Don't gotta treat it like a first date
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Used to think it would be a backseat sex scene
Drawin' hearts on the window, mm, but

[Chorus]
It's when we're in a crowded room, put your hand on my back
And waitin' on me in the morning with my coffee black
Back to the basics 'cause they're bigger than they seem, yeah
(Bigger than they seem, yeah)
Give me that typical, simple love, it's the little things, mm, mm-mm
Yeah, it's the little things (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah)

[Bridge]
Ooh, it ain't grandiose (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah)
Just pull me in and kiss me slow
Ooh, it ain't just for show (It ain't just for show, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah)
Let's not go big, let's just go home

[Chorus]
It's when we're in a crowded room, put your hand on my back
And waitin' on me in the morning with my coffee black
Back to the basics 'cause they're bigger than they seem, yeah
Give me that typical, simple love, ooh, it's the little things
When I go drinkin' with the girls and you leave on the light
The way you get me laughin' in the middle of a fight
Back to the basics 'cause they're bigger than they seem, yeah
(Bigger than they seem, yeah)
Give me that typical, simple love, it's the little things
[Outro]
Yeah, it's the little (It's the little), the little things
Yeah, it's the little, yeah, it's the little things

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
