The Little Things

(album: True North - 2018)

When you're crying, I will understand
And I will always be right here to hold your hand
When it's darkest and you're all alone
I will be the shining light to guide you home

It's the little things, I swear
The way you sing when you dry your hair
It's the little things we share, oh

The way you hold my hand after all these years
You make me laugh when I'm close to tears
We stay up late drinking cheap red wine
Like our first date, we'll just talk all night
About the little things

When you're old and your bones feel weak
I will sing to you until you fall asleep
When it's colder and it gets hard to move
I will dance with you right there in the living room

Oh, it's the little things you do
The way you laugh when I act a fool
It's the little you do, oh

The way you hold my hand after all these years
You make me laugh when I'm close to tears
We stay up late drinking cheap red wine
Like our first date, we'll just talk all night
I tell you all my fears and you just say
We'll play it all by year, we'll be okay
'Cause we're so much stronger than all of this
We'll build our lives up, brick by brick
Up on the little things
Up on the little things

When you're crying, I will understand
I will always be right here to hold your hand

It's the little things I've seen
You're so much kinder than I'll ever be
It's the little things for me, oh

The way you hold my hand after all these years
You make me laugh when I'm close to tears
We stay up late drinking cheap red wine
Like our first date, we'll just talk all night
I tell you all my fears and you just say
We'll play it all by year, we'll be okay
'Cause we're so much stronger than all of this
We'll build our lives up, brick by brick
Up on the little things
