The Smallest Thing Lyrics

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 and hid the scars below

It's easy but for you the sun is shining

How can I have been so blind?
How can 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
Can pick the pieces off

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

It's easy but for you the sun is shining

How can I have been so blind?
How can 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
Can pick the pieces off

Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

It's easy but for you the sun is shining

How can I have been so blind?
How can 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
Can pick the pieces off

The smallest thing
