Every Single Little Thing

by Jeff Martin

on The Operation (2017)

[Hook: Jeff Martin]
Yeah, ask for me once, I'll save you
Ask for me twice, I'll be true
And after all we've been through
Every single little thing I'll keep too

[Verse 1: Jeff Martin]
Look, remember all the memories we shared?
You made me think back then that you really cared
I guess we all find out that life isn't fair
So we give our hearts when nothin's even there
You used to hold my hand, I used to kiss your lips
And now you got me slow sippin' right out of this fifth
And I don't even really care that I'm this fuckin' sick
I only care about the things that I'm about to miss
I know that life goes on but I'm afraid to leave
Why do I feel so trapped when now I'm so free
The grass turn blue, the sky turns green
My world is upside-down when you're without me
And now you start to move on I think I'm gunna' too
I know you see other guys and now you got a few
I don't even get jealous when they're beside of you
And I'll still keep what you gave me but now I'm startin' new

[Hook: Jeff Martin]
Ask for me once, I'll save you
Ask for me twice, I'll be true
And after all we've been through
Every single little thing I'll keep too
Ask for me once, I'll save you
Ask for me twice, I'll be true
And after all we've been through
Every single little thing I'll keep too

[Verse 2: Jeff Martin]
Yeah, we met in junior year, talkin,' yeah, we were just kids
We shot hoops at the park and I would let you win
You would cry on my shoulder and I would lift your chin
I told you, "Life could be worse," and I would pull you in
We would park my car and take walks together
When I was so put down you would make me better
You were my sunshine in the rainy weather
All of the things that you gave me, yeah, I will keep forever
I kept the pictures you drew me when we were seventeen
I kept the letters you wrote me that I would always read
I kept the flowers you gave me back on the prom scene
I just hope that I keep you when I turn ninety-three
My women now, man, yeah, I think she's the one
She makes me act like a better man and she keeps me young
But I think after everything here has been said and done
I want this girl to be the mother of my future son

[Hook: Jeff Martin]
Ask for me once, I'll save you
Ask for me twice, I'll be true
And after all we've been through
Every single little thing I'll keep too
Ask for me once, I'll save you
Ask for me twice, I'll be true
And after all we've been through
Every single little thing I'll keep too

[Bridge: Jeff Martin]
Yeah, da-da-da-dum-da-da-dum
Yeah, da-da-da-dum-da-da-dum
Yeah, da-da-da-da-da-dum-da-dum
Da-da-da-da-dum-da-da-dum
Yeah, da-da-da-dum-da-da-dum
Za-za-za-dum-za-da-dum
Za-dum-da-da-du-da-dum-da-dum
Za-dum-dum-da-da-da-dum-da-dum

[Hook: Jeff Martin]
Ask for me once, I'll save you
Ask for me twice, I'll be true
And after all we've been through
Every single little thing I'll keep too
