Lyrics: The Little Things

Even though the little things matter the most
It's always the little things that go unnoticed
Even though the little things matter the most
It's always the little things that go unnoticed
Even though the little things matter the most
It's always the little things that go unnoticed
Even though the little things matter the most
It's always the little things that go unnoticed

[Verse 1 - Natasha Bedingfield:]
Saw it on a post it
Message that he wrote it
Said I hope you liked the
Dinner that I cooked
Marvin in the background
Candles that are burned down
His romantic gesture completely overlooked
All along the stairs
Petals of a rose
Leading to a bath
That had now gone cold
It wasn't until she laid down
And took a look around
Nowhere to be found
He wasn't there
Unappreciation
An all too familiar place
He'd been there for too long
And decided to escape

[Bridge:]
It's funny how you find
You're blind
Til what's right before your eyes
The little things hide behind
The trivial things larger inside

[Chorus]

[Verse 2 - Ne-Yo:]
... a new day

Just another Tuesday
Up and to the usual
Brushing of his teeth
Walking down the stairs
Eyes fixed upon his neck tie
Honey where's my breakfast
As he takes his seat
He never looks up
Never showing love
Reading a newspaper
Like he normally does
Suddenly he wonders why
He's gotten no reply
Looks up and sees her letter lying there

Unappreciation
An all too familiar place
We've been here for too long
Me and the kids have gone away

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

[Natasha Bedingfield & Ne-Yo:]
You never miss it til it's gone
Til it's gone
Til it's gone
You never miss it til it's gone
Til it's gone
Til it's gone
You never miss it til it's gone
Til it's gone
Til it's gone
You never miss it til it's gone
Til it's gone
Til it's gone

[Chorus]
