Lyrics

when your world begins to shatter
make a list of little things
all the ones that really matter
none of those that money brings

when the stars are bright enough to see time on your wrist
when the lights all turn to green to get you to the one you've missed
when you walk in through your door & see the one you love
when you can remind yourself

despite everything this is enough to get on beyond
all the worries in your life when you look out the window

and know that it's all the little things that make it better
so take to heart your every dream
like the ones that let you get her
convincing her you're what you seem

when your child looks up at you with smiles upon his face
when you read that news report on something good for the human race
when you look across the room to see the one you love
when you can remind yourself...

When an old friend re-appears with happy memories
when you hear the radio & start to dance spontaneously
when you're in that gentle light before the sun goes down
when you can remind yourself...
