Bruce Springsteen
It’s The Little Things That Count
She said we could just sleep together
There'd be nothing wrong
We could just hold each other with our clothes on
I went to answer, I don't think we should
Then I heard a voice say, yeah, I guess we could
She kissed me lightly and said you know sometimes when you're down
It's the little things that count
It's the little things that count
It's the little things...
She said it was too late, I really shouldn't try to drive
She unbuttoned my shirt and whispered just close your eyes
Here, let me take your boots off, you know sometimes when your luck's run out
It's the little things that count
It's the little things that count
It's the little things...
Bridge: Her dress rode lightly as she walked
Then she pulled the covers down
(harmonica break)
Well I was so dry, she held a water glass to my lips
And the polish on her nail was chipped
She said she had a boyfriend that I reminded her of
His hair was the same muddy brown; she stuck her tongue in my mouth...
