lyrics

Campfire on the lake shore
Roasting s’mores just right
Sunsets over the bay
Slow strolls in the moonlight
Watching toddler’s first steps
Mother’s kiss on a skinned knee
Children’s squeals of joy
Little ones living carefree

Sometimes the smallest things
Take up the most room in your heart
Cherished moments that
Give life its spark
Joking with old pals
Kidding and poking fun
Teasing to show we care
Telling tall tales we’ve spun
Road trips both short and long
Countrysides, historic towns
Seashores, mountains too
Taking in the sights and sounds

Yeah, Sometimes the smallest things
Take up the most room in your heart
Cherished moments that
Give life its spark

Watching snow fall at night
Bourbon’s warm glow on the rocks
Sweet smell of a cracking fire
Curled up sharing love talks
Helping a stranger
Before being asked
Feels good to do it
No matter the task

Yeah, Sometimes the smallest things
Take up the most room in your heart
Cherished moments that
Give life its spark
