Little Things
Cardigan Club Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tiny moments filled with golden
Perfect weekends I could dream all night
We don′t need a lot of money
I am richer with you by my side
Yeah, we live it right

I got two feet on the ground
Head flying in the clouds
It's just the little things
All of the little things
Hands up in the sky
It′s all gonna be alright
It's just the little things
All of the little things in life
That make me feel alive

(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
La la little things
La la little things

(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
La la little things
La la little things

Call up old friends, laugh for hours
Trade our stories, how the years slip by
Head in your hand
Strawberry jam
What a way to kiss the sun goodbye

Slow down father time

I got two feet on the ground
Head flying in the clouds
It's just the little things
All of the little things
Hands up in the sky
It′s all gonna be alright
It′s just the little things
All of the little things in life
That make me feel alive

(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
La la little things
La la little things

(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
La la little things
La la little things

I'm gonna hold you while I can
I′m gonna take the whole world in

I got two feet on the ground
Head flying in the clouds
It's just the little things
All of the little things
Hands up in the sky
It′s all gonna be alright
It's just the little things
All of the little things in life
That make me feel alive

(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
La la little things
La la little things

(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)




La la little things
La la little things
