[Chorus: Natasha Bedingfield]
Even though the little things matter the most
It's always the little things that go unnoticed
Even though the little things matter the most
It's always the little things that go unnoticed
Even though the little things matter the most
It's always the little things that go unnoticed
Even though the little things matter the most
It's always the little things that go unnoticed
[Verse 1: Natasha Bedingfield:]
Saw it on a post-it
Message that he wrote
It said, "I hope you liked the dinner that I cooked"
Marvin in the background
Candles that are burned down
His romantic gesture completely overlooked
All along the stairs
Petals of a rose
Leading to a bath
That had now gone cold
It wasn't until she laid down and took a look around
Nowhere to be found
He wasn't there
Unappreciation
An all too familiar place
He'd been there for too long
And decided to escape
[Bridge: Natasha Bedingfield]
It's funny how you find
You're blind
Til what's right before your eyes
The little things hide behind
The trivial things larger inside
[Chorus: Natasha Bedingfield]
Even though the little things matter the most
It's always the little things that go unnoticed
Even though the little things matter the most
It's always the little things that go unnoticed
[Verse 2: Ne-Yo]
Baby, I'm a new day
Just another Tuesday
Up and to the usual
Brushing of his teeth
Walking down the stairs
Eyes fixed upon his neck-tie
"Honey, where's my breakfast?"
As he takes his seat
He never looks up
Never showing love
Reading a newspaper
Like he normally does
Suddenly, he wonders why
He's gotten no reply
Looks up and sees her letter lying there
Unappreciation
An all too familiar place
We've been here for too long
Me and the kids have gone away
[Bridge: Natasha Bedingfield & Ne-Yo]
It's funny how you find
You're blind
Til what's right before your eyes
Ooh, the little things hide behind
The trivial things larger inside
[Chorus: Natasha Bedingfield & Ne-Yo, Both]
Even though the little things matter the most
It's always the little things that go unnoticed (Always the little things)
Even though the little things matter the most
It's always the little things that go unnoticed
[Breakdown: Natasha Bedingfield & Ne-Yo, Both]
You never miss it til it's gone (Until it's gone)
Til it's gone (Til it's gone)
Til it's gone (You never miss it, yeah)
You never miss it til it's gone (Oh no)
Til it's gone
Til it's gone (Hey, hey, hey)
You never miss it til it's gone away
Til it's gone (You never miss it)
Til it's gone away
You never miss it til it's gone away
Til it's gone (You never miss it)
Til it's gone away
(Oh, yeah yeah yeah yeah)
[Chorus: Natasha Bedingfield]
Even though the little things matter the most
It's always the little things that go unnoticed (Go unnoticed)
Even though the little things matter the most
It's always the little things that go unnoticed
