The Little Things

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
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
Oh, little things
