Small Things

It’s the simple things
Sunshine when the forecast’s rain
A smile from strangers on the train
When you feel like d**h at 8am
It’s the little things
See a penny pick it up
All day long you’ll have good luck
I heard that in a movie somewhere
I think it was with John Travolta
And in the end all the good guys won
But only just or else nobody would watch
It’s the small things in the end
The little things you’d least expect
Oh when you hold yourself together with sellotape
It’s the small things mean the most
Oh when you’re giving up the ghost
And you’re wondering how much more you gotta take
It’s the little things
No-one there when you get home
And though they’re nice it’s good to be alone
So you can party in your underwear
It’s the simple things
A message from a long lost friend
Fifteen minutes 'til you’re at the end
Of a week that’s straight from hell
Til you’re savouring a cool Corona
Cause in the end all the good guys won
But only after trials and tribulations were done
It’s the small things in the end
The little things you’d least expect
Oh when you hold yourself together with sellotape
It’s the small things mean the most
Oh when you’re giving up the ghost
And you’re wondering how much more you gotta take a lot
You take a lot
You take a lot
You take a lot
You know you do
Ooh ooh
But it’s the little things
The little things
The little things
The little things
That pull you through
They pull you through
It’s the small things in the end
The little things you’d least expect
Oh when you hold yourself together with sellotape
It’s the small things mean the most
Then when you’ve given up the ghost
And you’re wondering how much more you gotta take
It’s the little things (little things little little things now)
Oh the little things (little things little little things now)
That put you through
