Verse:
When we parted, I was satisfied to let you go,
But it's hard to get you off my mind.
Now I'm learning to regret the day I let you go,
You left a million memories behind;
Chorus:
Those ashes on the floor,
The way you'd slam the door,
I miss them when the day is through,
When I sit alone and think of you
And the little things you used to do.
The spot upon your tie,
The way that you would lie,
When I found out you'd been untrue;
You will never know how much I long for
The little things you used to do.
All your little faults I used to see
Would make me angry then,
But I'd love them all if I could be
Back in your arms again.
The way you used to clown,
The way that you would frown
At any other man I knew;
Oh, you'll never know how much I miss them,
The little things you used to do.
