Blink 182 – All The Small Things

All the Small Things” is a song by Blink-182, a single from their 1999 album Enema of the State. It is one of only two Blink-182 singles to reach the number 1 spot on the US Modern Rock chart.

Tom DeLonge was inspired to write the song after his then-girlfriend (to whom he is now married) complained that he had written many songs about all the other girls he had known in his life, but none about her.

The line in the song “she left me roses by the stairs/ surprises let me know she cares” references an actual incident where Tom came home late one night and had been left flowers by his girlfriend.

Blink 182 – All The Small Things – (2:48)
All the / small things
true care / truth brings
I’ll take / one lift
your ride / best trip
always / I know
you’ll be / at my show
watching, waiting, commiserating

Say it ain’t so, I will not go
turn the lights off, carry me home
Na, na, na, na….

Late night, come home
work sucks, I know
she left me roses by the stairs
surprises let me know she cares

Say it ain’t so, I will not go
turn the lights off, carry me home
Na, na, na, na….

Say it ain’t so, I will not go
turn the lights off, carry me home
keep your head still, I’ll be your thrill
the night will go on, my little windmill

Say it ain’t so, I will not go
turn the lights off, carry me home
keep your head still, I’ll be your thrill
the night will go on,
the night will go on,
my little windmill
