It's The Little Things
Sonny Cher Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're not the kind of guy
That make the girls all sigh
And they never turn their heads
And look when you walk by

But baby that's okay I love you anyway
And I never change or rearrange you
So stay that way

Cause it's the little things that mean a lot
It's what you are not what you got
Call my name and I'll come running
Look at me and the clouds start sunning
Hold my hand and you got me going
Kiss my lips and my mind starts going
We got a thing that won't stop cooking
You turn me on just by looking
You can make me strong just by sighing
You can break my heart just by crying

You're not the smartest man that I ever met
And every word you ever said I won't forget
And so I guess that's why until the day I die




When you're bad and make me sad
You're still my guy

Overall Meaning

The song "It's The Little Things" by Sonny & Cher is a love song that highlights the importance of the little things in a relationship. The first verse talks about how the guy is not conventionally attractive, and girls don't turn their heads when he walks by. However, it doesn't matter to the singer because she loves him just the way he is and doesn't want to change him. The chorus then emphasizes how it's the little things that mean a lot in a relationship. The little moments like calling her name or holding hands make her happy. The second verse acknowledges that he might not be the smartest man she's ever met, but she won't forget every word he has ever said. She accepts him for who he is and vows to love him even when he's bad and makes her sad.


The song emphasizes the importance of cherishing the little moments in a relationship and loving someone beyond their physical appearance or intellectual abilities. The song encourages accepting someone for who they are and loving them unconditionally. The chorus repeated twice emphasizes the idea of cherishing the little moments over materialistic possessions. Interestingly, Sonny and Cher were not married when they wrote this song. They were in a dating relationship.
