about

This song is a romance to the little things cos life is made up of infinite tiny happenings, and they're what counts. Little steps, little romances, little moments all making up the hugeness of existence.

Thank you for supporting my music, I wish you all the love.

lyrics

It's the little things
That make or break
It's the little things
That spin and shakes
A life worth living
Despite the heavy hand at stake

What reason for my sighs?
Well thanks for askin' but I ain't gonna say
Since you're passing by
Here's a word or two I'd like to send your way

It's the little things
That make or break
It's the little things
That spin and shake
A life worth living
Despite the heavy hand at stake

The beauty of the sky
It reminds me of your face
If you'd ask me why
I'd say you're both made up of light and open space

It's the little things
That make or break
It's the little things
That spin and shake
A life worth living
Despite the heavy hand at stake

Wake in your own time
Find me in the garden darlin'
Be my valentine
Life is for the livin' darlin'

It's the little things
That make or break
It's the little things
That spin and shake
A life worth living
Despite the heavy hand at stake

It's the little things
That make or break
It's the little things
That spin and shake
A life worth living
Despite the heavy hand at stake

Guy's music is a constant inspiration to me. He puts everything he has into creating stunning soundscapes with unbelievably skilled guitar playing...while at the same time remaining a humble man. Nathan Maingard
