It’s the little things that count in life
you have so much to gain,
when you’re down and lonely
just a smile can ease the pain.
A touch from one who loves you
can say so many things,
a hug is so much better
an all round warmth it brings.
A word that’s spoken kindly
or a gesture from a friend,
a letter from his far off home
with all their love they’ll send.
Just to sit together
or maybe take a walk,
when a friend would like your company
and listen while they talk.
Remember when you down and low
these things I’ve said to you,
for little things are mighty
sent with love that’s strong and true.
