Little Things

Just a little step
Just a little change
You can be the one
It might feel a little strange
Just a little smile
Or just a little look
Sometimes the right word
Rewrites the whole book
Take a little chance
Before you even know
In just a little while
You'll watch it bloom and grow
'Cause you can't fix everything
So start with the little things

Sometimes we get caught up
In the world's hectic, crazy pace
So many timelines and deadlines
That it feels like a race
Everyone's so focused
On big dreams and big schemes
That they're completely unaware
Of a million little things

Have you ever had your tab
Paid by a total stranger
Who didn't ask for a thing
Not concerned what it gained her
Or an unexpected text
From that long-lost friend
Just to check on how you're doing
And meet up this weekend

Just a little step
Just a little change
You can be the one
It might feel a little strange
Just a little smile
Or just a little look
Sometimes the right word
Rewrites the whole book
Take a little chance
Before you even know
In just a little while
You'll watch it bloom and grow
'Cause you can't fix everything
So start with the little things

What if you could be the one
To change someone's view?
You could brighten up their day
With a simple word or two
The world needs little moments
Of love and care to share
So why not take a tiny step
And show that you are there?

It's the door you hold open
For someone rushing through
Or the laughter that you spark
When your friend is feeling blue
A handwritten note that says
I believe in you
It's these tiny, little moments
That bring out the best in you

Just a little step
Just a little change
You can be the one
It might feel a little strange
Just a little smile
Or just a little look
Sometimes the right word
Rewrites the whole book
Take a little chance
Before you even know
In just a little while
You'll watch it bloom and grow
'Cause you can't fix everything
So start with the little things
It's the little things
