Song For Kathy

Take the morning from my life

Take the getting up and looking for the milk

And deciding who should go and make the tea

The early morning paper and the cigarette in bed

And wondering just what the day will bring



I thank you for the little things

And the happiness it brings

I thank you for the little things

And the happiness it brings to me



Take the day from my life

Take the wandering and shopping in the town

And going home to meet the kid from school

And sitting 'round the fire to watch a tv show

And the songs I mean to write and never do



I thank you for the little things

And the happiness it brings

I thank you for the little things

And the happiness it brings to me



Take the night from my life

Take the rolling and the tumbling in your arms

And the lying quietly, kissing, holding hands

The days work is forgotten, but somehow made it's mark

And the kid is sleeping safely in her



I thank you for the little things

And the happiness it brings

I thank you for the little things

And the happiness it brings to me
