The Little Things, Verse 1

Why don’t people want to love, in this world full of hate?
Why don’t people seem to care, when friends become irate?
The people running here and there, they never seem to halt.
And when something goes wrong, it never is their fault.
Is this world all too busy for a little thing called love?
Is love just an emotion for the squirrels and the doves?
All the people in the world, never slowing down to talk.
Whatever happened to the parks, where lovers used to walk?
All the people of the of the world, don’t notice these simple things,
And never seem to let their hearts and hopes take wing.
I see these troubles all around, and say this with despair,
Why is it all the little things, go by without a care?

The Little Things, Verse 2

The world changes from day to day
Or so the people say.
But as I watch the world from where I am
The whole idea is just a scam
Where is the change in a world
Where the little things are not heard?
Is life really too short to think about care,
While outcasts like me just sit and stare?
The world needs these little things
And all the joy that each one brings
