The little details

Verse 1

I’ve been paying attention, more than you know,

To the way your eyes brighten when your favorite song comes on.

The way you tuck your hair behind your ear when you’re shy,

And how you look away for a second when I catch your eye.

I know when you’re hurting before you say a word,

I can hear the weight you’re carrying in the silence I’ve learned.

I know your happy dance when good news comes around,

And the way you stare at the floor when life tries to drag you down.

Pre-Chorus

It’s not just the big moments that make me love you so,

It’s all the little things that most people never know.

Chorus

I pay attention to your details,

Every laugh, every tear, every story that you tell.

The way you mess up your words and smile when you do,

The way you trip on nothing and laugh the whole way through.

I notice when you’re stressed, when you’re strong, when you’re scared,

The little things you don’t think anybody sees are there.

Yeah, the reason that I love you isn’t hard to explain,

It’s all the little details that make you who you are every day.

Verse 2

I know the look you get when you’re trying not to cry,

And the one that says you’ve got a million things on your mind.

I know the way your shoulders soften when you finally relax,

And how a simple hug can help bring you back.

I love the freckles, the scars, every line that you wear,

The way you move across the room like you don’t know I’m staring.

I know what makes you flustered, what makes your cheeks turn red,

And the random little thoughts that somehow get stuck in your head.

Pre-Chorus

It’s not perfection that I’m holding onto tight,

It’s every little piece of you that makes my world feel right.

Chorus

I pay attention to your details,

Every laugh, every tear, every story that you tell.

The way you mess up your words and smile when you do,

The way you trip on nothing and laugh the whole way through.

I notice when you’re stressed, when you’re strong, when you’re scared,

The little things you don’t think anybody sees are there.

Yeah, the reason that I love you isn’t hard to explain,

It’s all the little details that make you who you are every day.

Bridge

When you’re mad, I see the fire.

When you’re sad, I see the hurt.

When you’re happy, I see sunshine,

And when you’re lost, I know your worth.

Through every season, every change, every high and every low,

I’ve learned a thousand little things about you that I never want to let go.

Final Chorus

I pay attention to your details,

To the way you light a room without even trying yourself.

The way you laugh at your mistakes instead of letting them win,

The way you keep on fighting when the world closes in.

I notice every little thing, from your smile to your soul,

The pieces that come together and somehow make me whole.

So if you ever wonder if you’re seen, the answer’s true—

I’ve been paying attention to every little detail of you.

Outro

Every little detail…

Every little smile…

Every little stumble…

Every little detail makes me love you more…
