"Simple Little Things" from 110 in the Shade

A gentle reminder that happiness is often found not in epic adventures but in the small, everyday moments of life. It invites adults and children to appreciate the simple joys, instilling a sense of contentment and peace, reminding us that the world is a beautiful and wonderful place when we appreciate the infinite, yet little joys.

Not all dreams are great big dreams
Some peoples' dreams are small
Not all dreams have to have a golden fleece,
Or any kind of fleece at all

My dreams, like my name, are very plain
No shining knight must kneel
My dreams, like my name, are very plain
But nevertheless, they're real
They're all so very real

Simple little things
All I want are simple little things
All I need is someone beside me to have and to hold
Someone to love me as we grow older
Simple little things
Simple little dreams will do

"Honey, is my blue suit pressed?"
"Honey, kinda scratch between my shoulder blades."
"Honey, are the children all in bed?"
That's what she'll say
I'll say, "My darling"

Simple little things
All I want are simple little things
All I need is someone beside me to have and to hold
Someone to love me as we grow older
Simple little things
Simple little dreams will do

”Honey… honey”
Simple little things
