Little Things
The Oak Ridge Boys
The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
It's the way you kiss me when we're walkin' down the street It's the words you whisper when we're driftin' off to sleep A certain way you touch me, the way you say "hello" Baby it's the little things that make me love you so. The way you pour your coffee in the early mornin' light The way you call my name out in the middle of the night How you sit for hours singin' with the radio Baby it's the little things that make me love you so. It's not the memories or all that we've been through It's not the distant dreams that keep me coming back to you It's not the promises that keep me warm at night It's just the every day, it's just the safe and sound, it's just our home sweet home. And when we're old and gray now and the kids have gone away We're alone together I may turn to you and say There's something I forgot to tell you and by now I think you'll know Baby it's the little things that make me love you so. Woah woah, Baby it's the little things that make me love you so. Walkin' in the park, kissin' in the dark The little things that baby makes me feel alright now Baby it's the little things that make me love you Baby it's the little things that make me love you so
