The Smallest Thing

[Verse 1]
I didn't notice the crying man, too busy with me
I didn't stop for a moment to help the woman on her knees
I didn't hear the cry for help behind her polite "hello"
I only saw the gentle smile that hid the scars below

[Pre-Chorus]
It's easy when for you the sun is shining

[Chorus]
How could I have been so blind?
How could I miss so much?
Just a word from me
The smallest thing
Could have been enough
Why didn't I give some time?
Why didn't I spare some love?
Just a smile from me
The smallest thing
Could pick the pieces up
The smallest thing

[Verse 2]
I didn't take the time to ask if everything's okay
When everyone else walked on by, I just did the same
I've been counting problems but the truth is I was fine
The people I've ignored each day feel pain much worse than mine

[Pre-Chorus]
It's easy when for you the sun is shining

[Chorus]
How could I have been so blind?
How could I miss so much?
Just a word from me
The smallest thing
Could have been enough
Why didn't I give some time?
Why didn't I spare some love?
Just a smile from me
The smallest thing
Could pick the pieces up

[Bridge]
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
It's easy when for you the sun is shining

[Chorus]
How could I have been so blind?
How could I miss so much?
Just a word from me
The smallest thing
Could have been enough
Why didn't I give some time?
Why didn't I spare some love?
Just a smile from me
The smallest thing
Could pick the pieces up

[Outro]
The smallest thing
