Lyrics
Those Little Things
Music/lyrics
T. Edwin Doss
Seen her spill those strawberries on the kitchen floor
Sometimes she catches her cotton dress inside the ol' screen door
The way she looks watching "Idol", rubbing lotion on her skin Oh man, she'd be so mad at me if she knew I were watching then
Those little things are things I can't explain
Like, why her hair seems sexier even in a pouring rain
When the biscuits burn, when she tries to sing,
When she paints her nails on the front porch swing
It makes me love her more
She'll never know how much I adore
The unexplainable feeling that it brings
When she never knows I'm watching her do
Those little things
Seen her try to park her car on the main street of our town
With embarrassment on her face when friends and neighbors gather 'round
Seen her struggle for an hour with a needle she couldn't thread
How long it would take to fluff pillows when she'd make the bed
Chorus
(bridge)
Many years from now she might say to me say to me, "When we were so much younger, there were things I didn't see".
She'll talk on and on, but I won't even smile
On the inside I'll be laughing, listening all the while
Chorus
