Lyrics

The Little things
Musik F.Lundin & tekst Trine-Lise Væring 1999
Like a day I've got all to myself Like waiters
who love their trade and know it well like baby feet
like work well done and put away like friendly strangers
that's where I find my thrill you see in little things that humour me
and turn my day round instantly
Like the smell of bread or sun-dried sheets Like women
who laugh too loud and do not care
like coming home
when lights are on and you're awake like late night suppers
that's how I get my kicks you see some little thing that pleases me
will turn up unexpectedly
Like a sunstreak on my bedroom floor like young girls
with clearskinned smiles and hungry eyes likke napping
in the afternoon while others work like going places
that's where I find my thrill you see the little things that humour me
they change my mood round instantly
Like the baby on my tired arm like shopping
for this and that and everything like teenage-boys
who cannot wait to prove themselves like autumn sunshine
that's why I trust each day you see some little thing that pleases me
will turn up unexpectedly
