I started my life
With breath and light and hugs and kisses
And then in the end 
I’ll count up all my hopes and wishes

I, I, I, I, I
Just want a simple life
I want to feel alive
I’m learning that 
The little things
The little things are mine

Flowers grow and children cry
Tell me what’s the reason
Fall is hot and summer’s cold
So what’s in a season
I, I, I, I, I
Just gotta take my time
I know that all is fine
I’m learning that 
The little things
The little things are mine

Are you
L, l, l, l, l, l, l, l
Laughing too
Do you wa, a, a, a, ant 
Someone to hold you through
The absurdity of life
Awoo
The absurdity of life
Awoo

Love is strong
And hope is real 
That’s what I believe in
Just wake me up
When it’s all done
‘Cause I must be dreaming
I, I, I, I, I
Live for the best of a life
A slice of paradise
I’m learning that 
The little things
The little things are mine

And when it starts to rain
There’s water falling from the sky
I go to sing and dance
Now water’s falling from my eye
I, I, I, I, I
Just want a simple life
I want to feel alive
I’m learning that 
The little things
The little things are mine

Are you
L, l, l, l, l, l, l, l
Laughing too
Do you wa, a, a, a, ant 
Someone to hold you through
The absurdity of life
Awoo
The absurdity of life
Awoo

And this too shall pass
As fast as you live in your mind
It’s all absurd if it’s absurd just to be kind
We’re coming down from being high
Upside down we start to fly
We’re going up from being low
In reverse what do you know
Flame on, flame on, flame on
It’s super saying time
Are you (are you)
Are you (are you)
Are you really fine
Otherwise
Sometimes
We’ll cry
Die
I will be all right

So are you 
L, l, l, l, l, l, l, l
Laughing too
Do you wa, a, a, a, ant 
Someone to hold you through
The absurdity of life
Awoo
The absurdity of life
Awoo
