American Aquarium Little Things Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was standin' in the kitchen doin' the dishes we left from the night before
Then she walked in with a gap-toothed grin roarin' like a dinosaur
I've spent my whole life with one foot out of the door
And it finally took puttin' down what I was workin' on to see what I was workin' for

[Chorus]
'Cause it's the little things that get me through to tomorrow
Oh it's the little things that keep me in the fight
It's coffee in the mornin', it's singin' her to sleep each night
Yeah it's the little things that let me know
That everything's gonna be alright

[Verse 2]
See I was patiently waitin', anticipatin' to get back out on thе road
Just try to be smart and play my part, shoulder my share of thе load
I used to be a singer with a family back home And now I'm just a father and a husband who knows his way around around a microphone

[Chorus]
'Cause it's the little things that get me through to tomorrow
Oh it's the little things that keep me in the fight
It's coffee in the mornin', it's singin' her to sleep each night
Yeah it's the little things that let me know
That everything's gonna be alright

[Bridge]
Last year nearly broke us, time slipped by like a ghost
But it allowed me to focus on the things that matter most

[Chorus]
'Cause it's the little things that get me through to tomorrow
Oh it's the little things that keep me in the fight
It's coffee in the mornin', it's singin' her to sleep each night
It's the little things that let me know
That everything's gonna be alright
