I couldn’t smile if I tried,
You bounced into my life
And my joy I couldn’t hide.
Your so simple answers
To questions too big to ask,
Made me realize you
Didn’t see me as an impossible task.
You took the time
Out of your day,
To make me feel special,
You went out of your way.
You do the little things,
Most people think aren’t worthwhile.
All those little things
That make me smile.
A smile’s no big deal
To someone whose life is bright.
I guess I’m trying to say,
Into my darkness you spread light.
Thank you for the little things,
Or little they seem to be.
I just thought I’d let you know,
They mean the world to me.
