The Little Things

Steve Helmer
There might be days when you sometimes wonder why I'm so devoted to you.

It's not one thing in particular.

It's a bunch of the little things you do.

It's the way you make me melt with a touch of your finger tips.

And the way you make me forget the rest of the world for a moment

with just a kiss from your sweet lips.

It's the way you'll still smile at me, just because I brought you a flower.

And they way you smell like baby oil

Right after you get out of the shower.

It's the way you always look so perfect whenever we go out to dine.

And I absolutely love the way

Your hand fits so perfectly inside mine.

It's the way you can watch a horror movie and make fun of the scariest creep.

And the way you feel in my arms

As we both fall fast asleep.

It's the way your soft skin always feels like a velvet glove.

And the way I can feel your heart beating next to mine

Whenever we make love.

The most important of all the little things you do.

Is the joy I feel each day inside

Just because I am hopelessly in love with you.
