Little Things

Madilyn Bailey

Your hand fits in mine
Like it's made just for me
But bear this in mind
It was meant to be
And I'm joining up the dots 
with the freckles on your cheeks
And it all makes sense to me

You know I've never loved
The crinkles by my eyes
When I smile
I've never loved
My stomach or my thighs,
The dimples in my back 
at the bottom of your spine
But I'll love them endlessly

I won't let these little things slip out of my mouth
But if I do
It's you
Oh, it's you they add up to
I'm in love with you
And all these little things

You can't go to bed without a cup of tea
And maybe that's the reason that you talk in your sleep
And all those conversations are the secrets that I keep
Though it makes no sense to me

You know I've never loved
The sound of my voice on tape
I never want
To know how much I weigh
I still have to squeeze into my jeans
But you love me for me

I won't let these little things slip out of my mouth
But if I do
It's you,
It's you they add up to
I'm in love with you
And all these little things

You'll never love yourself half as much as I love you
And you'll never treat yourself right, darling, but I want you to.
If you let me know I'm here for you
Maybe you'll love yourself like I love you

And I've just let these little things slip out of my mouth
But it's you,
Oh, it's you,
It's you they add up to
And I'm in love with you
And all these little things

I won't let these little things slip out of my mouth
But if it's true
It's you,
It's you they add up to
I'm in love with you
And all these little things
