[Intro – Soft fingerpicked guitar, warm rasp] Mmm… it’s the little things… [Verse 1] Coffee in the morning light, steam rising slow Kids laughing in the other room, stealing the whole show Sun hitting the dashboard on a random Tuesday drive These are the moments that keep this heart alive Not the big wins or the spotlight glow Just the quiet kind of magic nobody else knows A text that says “I’m thinking about you” Or the way the dog greets me like I hung the moon [Pre-Chorus] The world keeps screaming loud, trying to steal the day But I’m learning how to look the other way [Chorus] Small joys… they’re the ones that save me Small joys… when the big ones feel crazy A perfect song, a real laugh, a hand in mine These are the treasures that make life feel fine Small joys… I’m holding on to these Small joys… they’re the quiet victories When everything’s heavy, I remember to see The small joys… that’s where peace finds me [Verse 2] Rain on the window while the house is finally still The way my wife looks at me when the world gets too real Burnt toast and bad jokes at the dinner table These are the chapters that make the whole story stable I don’t need perfect, I don’t need grand Just these little sparks scattered across the land A deep breath, a kind word, a sky full of stars Reminding me who I am when the noise gets too hard [Bridge – Stripped back, then gently rising] The big things come and go, the loud ones fade away But the small joys stay… they always stay [Final Chorus – Warm, fuller build with harmonies] Small joys… they’re the ones that save me Small joys… when the big ones feel crazy A perfect song, a real laugh, a hand in mine These are the treasures that make life feel fine Small joys… I’m holding on to these Small joys… my favorite victories When everything’s heavy, I remember to see The small joys… that’s where life sets me free [Outro – Gentle guitar fade] Yeah… it’s the small joys… They’re enough. They’re more than enough.
