The Little Things In Life Lyrics

How long has it been 
Since you got up on the early side a' mornin'? 
And saw the sun a-risin' 
Bright an' shiny on the eastern side a' day? 
And long will it be 
'Til you listen to the sound of evenin' thunder? 
And go runnin' through the raindrops 
And stop to smell the flowers on the way  
 
How long has it been 
Since you heard the leaves a-rustlin' in November? 
And felt the autumn wind 
Blowin' soft across a sky of sil'vry gray? 
And how long will it be 
'Til you walk along the riverside together? 
And take the time to skip a stone 
And stop to watch the ripples fade away  
 
But we're so busy tryin' to make it 
Workin' mornin', noon and night 
That we never see the sunlight 
And anytime we started lookin'  
For the little things in life that make it livin'  
 
How long has it been 
Since you held your woman in your arms and kissed her? 
And told her that you'd love her 
'Til the day that heaven takes you both away? 
And how long will it be 
'Til you wake up late at night and turn to whisper, 
"Hon, I promise you tomorrow ain't a-gonna be just another day."  
 
But we're so busy tryin' to make it 
Workin' mornin', noon and night 
That we never feel the lovelight 
And anytime we started hearin'  
All them quiet words that come from up above  
 
We're so busy tryin' to fight it 
Drivin' hard to beat the stoplight 
That we never see the starlight 
And anytime we started lookin'  
For the little things in life that make it love  
 
Yeah, the little things in life that make it livin' 
Are the little things in life that make it love
