Songwriters: Dolly Parton; Bill Owen

You never send me flowers
Or ever buy me candy
You never bring me pretty things
When you come to see me

And you forgot my birthday
Oh I wish you could see
How I miss
The little things
That you don't do for me

You never say that I look nice
Or that you're proud of me
You overlook
The little things
That you should see

These little things are big enough to hurt
But too small to make me want to leave
But I do miss
The little things
That you don't do for me

Now how can I miss flowers
That never reach my door
How can I taste candy
That's still at the candy store

These little things mean a lot to me
To you they may be silly
But I do miss
The little things
That you don't do for me
Yes I miss
The little things
That you don't do for me

Dolly sings with so much raw emotion and real passion. Performers who sing from the depths of their soul is such a rarity these days. Her songs are like poetry from the heart. Beautiful video, I absolutely love it! Thanks for posting!

Dolly is simply the best. With the exception of Tammy and Loretta, Shania is the only other Country artist that can write and sing with this much emotion. I love Carrie and Taylor but I'm sorry but they just don't hold candle to Dolly, Loretta, Tammy and Shania.

@MelissaToronto Performers don't sing with as much emotion as Dolly period.. Every woman who listens to A Dolly Parton song can identify with it... Dolly pours her heart into her songs & you don't just hear it, you feel it :) xx
