The Smallest Thing - Frances

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
