Everyday Things – words and music by Judy Daigle (c) 2020

When I’m at my worst, you say you love me.
Don’t need to pretend that I’m feeling ok.
When life’s ups and down, seem to surround me
Wrapped in your arms, I start to feel safe.
The touch of your hand in mine clears the clouds from the sky and the sun starts to shine

Chorus:
It’s the everyday things that show me you love me.
They mean so much more than silver or gold.
I’m richer than most. I know that I’m lucky
that you chose me to have and to hold;
to share all of the everyday things.

The day that we met, I wasn’t looking
for someone to walk in, grab hold of my heart.
With a smile in your eyes, you sat down beside me
said “Do you mind, I’m new in these parts”.
We shared lunch at the five and dime then went down to the beach to walk the shoreline.

(chorus)


Bridge:
Here we are all these years later.
still feels like it did down on that shore.
Counting stars, there’s nothing greater.
In these quiet times I love you more.
It’s the things that we’ve shared year after year.
It’s the hellos and goodnights and I love you dears.
It’s the knowing that someone will always be standing right here with me.
You’ll always be there for me.

(chorus)

I’m richer than most. I know that I’m lucky
that you chose me to have and to hold;
to share all of the everyday things.

We share all of the everyday things.
