THE LITTLE THINGS

I use to think that I had bigger mountains left to climb  too much over time was not enough
My worth was measured by the gains that you could see money was the only thing I needed more of
I'm so thankful that God opened up my eyes to the things that really matter in my life like

Hide and seek with all my youngin's spendin' time just doin' nothin'
But hangin' with my God sent wife popcorn soda movie nights
Conversations deep or silly livin lovin' laughin' till we hurt
That's what it's all about as time rolls by I realize It's the little things that count

I'm learnin' that true treasures are the moments wrapped in love with those God gave to us to help us shine
Now the only thing I want more of is memories down with my selfish needs no such thing as mine
We're not guaranteed one single second more so why not fill my time with the things worth livin' for

It's I love you daddy's miss you too's hey dad watch what i can do's
Kitten purrs and puppy love bedtime books and nighttime hugs
Conversations deep or silly livin lovin' laughin' till we hurt  
That’s what i's all about as time rolls by I realize it's the little things that count

It’s conversations deep or silly livin lovin' laughin' till we hurt  
That’s what i's all about as time rolls by I realize 
Yeah, there's no doubt in my mind It's the little things that count

It's the little things that count

It's the little things that Count
