Little Things
Megan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just the way you planned
It's funny but the bells don't ring
It's a quiet thing
When you hold the world
In your trembling hand
You'd think you'd hear a choir singing
It's a quiet thing
There are no exploding fireworks
Where's the roaring of the crowds?
Maybe it's the strange new atmosphere
Way up here among the clouds
But I don't hear the drums
I don't hear the drums
And I don't hear the band
I don't hear the band
The sounds I'm told such moments bring
Happiness comes in on tiptoe
Well, whatd'ya know?
Well, whatd'ya know?
It's a quiet thing
It's a quiet thing
A very quiet thing
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
Mama's gonna buy you a mockin' bird
And if that mockin' bird don't sing
Mama's gonna buy you a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring turns brass
Mama's gonna buy you a lookin' glass
So hush, little baby, don't you cry
Mama's gonna sing you
Mama's gonna sing you a lullaby
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
Mama's gonna buy you a mockin' bird
There are no exploding fireworks
Where's the roaring of the crowds?
Maybe it's the strange new atmosphere
Way up here among the clouds
But I don't hear the drums (so hush, little baby)
I don't hear the band (don't you cry)
The sounds I'm told such moments bring (mama's gonna sing you a lullaby)
Happiness comes in on tiptoe
Well, whatd'ya know?
It's a quiet thing
A very quiet thing
The lyrics of the song "Little Things" by Megan Hilty highlight the fact that success and happiness might not be as loud and dramatic as people usually think. The opening lines suggest that success doesn't come with bells ringing, but rather in a hushed, subdued manner. The song reflects on how achieving the things we dream of can feel anti-climactic because our expectations of success are often defined by societal or cultural standards. She describes how she thought there would be drums and bands celebrating her success alongside her, but instead, it's just a quiet thing. The chorus effectively emphasizes the message that happiness is a subtle, peaceful state that often comes quietly, not in a celebratory show of noise and lights.
The song's overall message is one of hope, that happiness can be found in the small things in life that often go unnoticed. The lullaby at the end of the song brings a feeling of nostalgia, representing the innocence of childhood where mothers often sang sweet melodies to soothe their babies to sleep. By linking this message to a lullaby, the song emphasizes the idea that finding peace in little things is an essential part of life, and we can learn from our experiences as children about the importance of finding joy in small, muted moments.
Line by Line Meaning
When it all comes true
When all your dreams and aspirations become a reality
Just the way you planned
Exactly as you envisioned it would be
It's funny but the bells don't ring
Despite everything falling into place, there seems to be something missing
It's a quiet thing
The achievement of your dreams is a subtle, understated experience
When you hold the world
When you have everything you ever wanted or needed
In your trembling hand
Despite being overjoyed, the realization of your dreams can be nerve-wracking
You'd think you'd hear a choir singing
One would assume that such happiness would be announced with great fanfare
But I don't hear the drums
There is no thunderous applause or triumphant music
And I don't hear the band
No marching band, no trumpet fanfares, no celebration
The sounds I'm told such moments bring
The happiness that was expected to be loud and obvious
Happiness comes in on tiptoe
It sneaks up on you quietly, unannounced
Well, whatd'ya know?
An expression of surprise at how subtle and quiet happiness can be
It's a quiet thing
Happiness is often understated and unremarkable
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
A mother is comforting her child
Mama's gonna buy you a mockin' bird
The mother intends to make her child happy
And if that mockin' bird don't sing
If the child is still not happy
Mama's gonna buy you a diamond ring
The mother will keep trying to bring joy to her child
And if that diamond ring turns brass
Even if things don't work out as hoped or planned
Mama's gonna buy you a lookin' glass
The mother will keep looking for ways to make her child happy
So hush, little baby, don't you cry
There is no need to be upset
Mama's gonna sing you
The mother will soothe the child with her voice
A lullaby
A gentle, calming song to help the child relax
There are no exploding fireworks
The absence of loud celebrations
Where's the roaring of the crowds?
The expected sounds of a triumphant moment
Maybe it's the strange new atmosphere
The unfamiliarity of realizing a dream
Way up here among the clouds
Metaphorically elevated to a position of great accomplishment
A very quiet thing
The achievement of a dream, as well as the happiness that comes with it, is often muted and peaceful

Love this show the world needs some hope like this show.
Agent Washington
Hope ? This is where we should go for hope ? That's what MMA fights are for. Besides, traditional, strong families are what's needed more than anything a TV show can give
Kim Watson
Things had better end well for everyone on this show! It is the only show on right now that provides a blue print for helping ppl learn how to hold their lives together when things get crazy.
