It's the simple things
Sunshine when the forecast's rain
A smile from strangers on the train
When you feel like death 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
Oh-only just or else nobody would watch
 
It's the small things in the end
The little things you least expect
When you hold yourself together with Sellotape
It's the small things mean the most
Oh, when you've given up the ghost
And you're wondering how much more you've got to take
 
It's the little things
No-one there when you get home
And thought 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 help

'Til you're savouring a cold Corona
Coz 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 least expect
When you hold yourself together with Sellotape
It's the small things mean the most
Oh, when you've given up the ghost
And you're wondering how much more you've got to

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, ooh-ooh
They pull you through
 
It's the small things in the end
The little things you least expect
When you hold yourself together with Sellotape
It's the small things mean the most
Oh, when you've given up the ghost
And you're wondering how much more you've got to take
 
It's the little things
Oh the little things (little little things now)
That pull you through
