Content

The song centers on the notion that even small gestures of kindness can convey love[1] and help maintain strong healthy relationships.[2] The lyrics focus on Ella Mai consciously putting effort into a relationship through these actions, such as preparing a bath, a movie to entertain,[2] and breakfast for her partner.[3] Like the other songs from 3, "Little Things" is believed to be addressing her boyfriend, basketball player Jayson Tatum.[2][3]
