It’s the little things that mean so much
Just a smile, a loving word and such
Ordinary things that happen every day
Forget-me-nots, in life’s bouquet
Like the kisses that your lips invite
Or your whisper when you say goodnight
May you never lose the sentimental touch
It’s the little things that mean so much
