Little Things
Bec Lavelle Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
like imitation diamond rings
Walking where the silver moon
is shining on the sea
I like your hand in mine
the way we leave the stars behind
I turn around and find your eyes
It's like dreaming
with open eyes
I never felt somebody feel like this
You're every wish I make and I
I never really knew until this night
That I've been missing you
all my life
The cheap italian restaurant
That fake Picasso that you want
the waiter when he dropped
your favourite bottle of wine
the silly photo that we took
the broken watch
the way you look
pretendingthat you'll have me home
on time
I'm still dreaming
with open eyes
I never felt somebody feel like this
You're every wish I make and I
I never really knew until this night
That I've been missing you
all my life
I'm still dreaming
with open eyes
I never felt somebody feel like this
You're every wish I make and I
I never really knew until this night
That I've been missing you
I've been missing you
I never felt somebody feel like this
You're every wish I make and I
I never really knew until this night
That I've been missing you
I never felt somebody feel like this
You're every wish I make and I
I never really knew until this night
That I've been missing you
The lyrics of “Little Things” by Bec Lavelle are all about appreciating the small things that make relationships special. The singer mentions that it's not always the grand gestures that make her happy, but rather the little things that her partner does for her. She mentions the imitation diamond rings, as if they are not real, but it doesn't matter to her because the love her partner shows her makes them just as special.
The second verse talks about their time spent together while walking under the moonlight. She mentions how holding hands with her partner makes her feel, like they are leaving the stars behind. She emphasizes on the fact that it is the attention of her partner towards her, which is making her feel special. The bridge emphasizes the fact that it is the very first time she is feeling the way she does with this person. The love, care, and affection showered on her is something she has never experienced before.
Overall, the song is a tribute to the importance of the little things in life, especially in relationships. The message of the lyrics is to appreciate the little things in a relationship, to not take them for granted, and to recognize that they can be just as powerful and precious as the grand gestures.
