India.arie - Little Things lyrics

rate me

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Been around the whole world, still ain't seen

Nothin' like my neighborhood

And of all the fancy satin and silk

My white cotton feels so good

Searched high and low for a place

Where I can lay my burdens down

Ain't nothin' in the whole wide world

Like the piece that I have found

(It's the little things) It's the little things

And the joy they bring

(The little things) It's the little things

And joy they bring

As simple as a phone call just to make it known

That you're gonna be a little late

Pure as a kiss on a cheek in a word

That everything will be okay

Call in the mornin' from my little sister

Singin' to me, "Happy Birthday"

In the quest for fortune and fame

Don't forget about the simple things

(It's the little things) It's the little things

And the joy they bring, yeah

(The little things) It's the little things

And joy

Give me some roomful, give me seclusion

Give me some peace of mind

Bring me some sunshine, bring me some blue sky

Runnin' 'round in circles, lost my focus

Lost sight of my goal

I do this for the love of music

Not for the glitter and gold

Got everything that I pray for

Even a little more

When I ask to learn humility

This is what I was told

(It's the little things) It's the little things

And the joy they bring, it's the little things

(The little things) It's the little things

Oh...hee...

Give me my guitar, bring me a bright star

Give me some good news, give me some cute shoes

Give me Atlanta, give me Savannah

give me my peace of mind

Give me some Stevie, give me some Donny

Give me my daddy, give me my mommy

Pour me some sweet tea, spoonful of honey

and a little Hollywood
