It's the everyday things
You find throughout your day
The simple little joys
Like hearing a child pray
You can't take time to notice
If your life is in a hurry
If your heart is full of woe
Or your mind is full of worry
But in the everyday things
Take time to look for treasures
They're not so hard to find
They're the simple little pleasures
A smile from across the room
The twinkle in someone's eye
Picking flowers in a garden
A slice of apple pie
Take time to hear the sparrow
Sing her lovely song
Smell the fragrance of a flower
For life does not last long
