The Little Things

[Verse 1]
She said we could just sleep together
There'd be nothing wrong
Yeah, we could just hold each other with our clothes on
I went to answer
"I don't think we should"
Then I heard a voice say, "Yeah, I guess we could"
She kissed me lightly
Said, "You know sometimes when you're down

[Chorus]
It's the little things that count
It's the little things that count
It's the little things"

[Verse 2]
She smiled and said something stupid
But I didn't hear a sound
She put on her lipstick and I watched her mouth
She said it was too late
And I shouldn't try to drive
She unbuttoned my shirt and whispered, "Just close your eyes"
"Let me take your boots off
You know, sometimes, when your luck's run out

[Chorus]
It's the little things that count
It's the little things that count
It's the little things"

[Bridge]
Her dress rode lightly as she walked
Then she pulled the covers down

[Verse 3]
I was so dry
She held the water glass to my lips
The polish on her nails was chipped
She said she had a boyfriend I reminded her of
His hair was the same muddy brown
She stuck her tongue in my mouth
