Take the morning from my life
Take the getting up and looking for the milk
And deciding who should go and make the tea
The early morning paper and the cigarette in bed
And wondering just what the day will bring
I thank you for the little things
And the happiness it brings
I thank you for the little things
And the happiness it brings to me
Take the day from my life
Take the wandering and shopping in the town
And going home to meet the kid from school
And sitting 'round the fire to watch a tv show
And the songs I mean to write and never do
I thank you for the little things
And the happiness it brings
I thank you for the little things
And the happiness it brings to me
Take the night from my life
Take the rolling and the tumbling in your arms
And the lying quietly, kissing, holding hands
The days work is forgotten, but somehow made it's mark
And the kid is sleeping safely in her
I thank you for the little things
And the happiness it brings
I thank you for the little things
And the happiness it brings to me
