Little Words

a little angel on my shoulder

once told me to stop fretting

told me i had a few reasons to smile

all around me were stars as bright as the sunshine coming through the sky

the way you’re smiling back at me tonight

i know i sometimes think too much

and don’t know how to say things right

but i’ll keep writing down all of these little words about you

i know i sometimes think too much

and don’t know how to say things right

but i’ll keep writing down all of these little words about you

anxious, loving tired and a little bit sarcastic

cautious, charming

i could write a hundred poems about you

a little scrapbook in my hands

that i have filled with so many wishes, thoughts and tiny little prayers

i hope that one day you will find a home in all the things i’ve written

and realize you have a place to stay

i know i sometimes think too much

and don’t know how to say things right

but i’ll keep writing down all of these little words about you

i know i sometimes think too much

and don’t know how to say things right

but i’ll keep writing down all of these little words about you

anxious, loving tired and a little bit sarcastic

cautious, charming

i could write a hundred poems about you

listen, darling

i know you’re sad and have been for a while

but in the morning you will always have me by your side
