"Little Things" was originally a track on my 2012 debut album "Written Melody." Eventually, after a couple years on iTunes, and roughly six sales, I decided I would take it down and try to produce something of more quality. After a while, I realized that there was literally nowhere to listen to this tune, aside from seeing me play live. So, I recorded it it tonight. It's not perfect, but it has a melody that's catchy, and it's fun to sing. Maybe you'd want to as well. Or not, just move on to the next song, if you'd like. Your call.
The song is based on a story from youth, and the first verse is literally based on a high school musical audition cold read. Interesting. Or not, again...your call.
lyrics
Read right off the script,
and say the words
you never wanted to admit,
That you were self-aware,
To tell the truth,
Well, I was just as nervous.
Everything came right off the page,
And made a love that will last for ages,
Can't you see?
The little things you did for me.
Can't you see?
The little things you did for me.
Come together for a day,
right away,
let's hope we don't get caught.
You'll find a way,
but you can't stay,
and you end up in the church parking lot.
I can hear your worry on the phone.
I'll drive there so you'll never be alone.
Can't you see?
The little things you did for me.
Can't you see?
The little things you did for me.
I can't go, I can't go on...
If you'll be, If you'll be gone.
Can't you see?
The little things you did for me.
Can't you see?
The little things you did for me.
I can't go, I can't go on...
If you'll be, If you'll be gone.
Don't you ever fear,
let down your shield,
cause no one comes as close as you.
I've looked around the world,
for a girl,
but no one does the things you do.
Got a story as I go to bed,
Talk away until our cell phone is dead.
Can't you see?
The little things you did for me.
Can't you see?
The little things you did for me.
