All It Takes

I never underestimate the power of " a little this or that." ☝️

lyrics

9/1/22
I could feel today I've hit the bottom
and landed right on my head
and my friend shows up but he can't help
so he throws me a shovel instead.

I could come home beat n' bruised n' burned
with my senses all but fried
and I'm wishin' all those trolls I got
had crawled somewhere and died!

(Sub-Chorus)
But a smile from you or just a peck
can turn it all around
Or, an "I missed you" or "I'm glad you're here"
can lift me off the ground.
Yeah, just one squeeze or just one note...
You know that's what I love.
I'll take just one, the best you've got
or all of the above.
That's really all it takes
That's really all it takes.
Just a little touch;
I hope it's not too much.
(Chorus)
Lest my poor heart breaks
from it's never-ending aches
But something sweet from you
is really all it takes.

I could be called lots of wretched names
or robbed of my sense of worth
and shake my head at what I've done
in this crazy place called "Earth"

I could lose my cool to play the fool
and make it all real bad
and I'll clench my fist and grit my teeth
when I see that I've been had.

(Sub-Chorus)
But a smile from you or just a peck
can turn it all around
Or, an "I missed you" or "I'm glad you're here"
can lift me off the ground.
Yeah, just one squeeze or just one note...
You know that's what I love.
I'll take just one, the best you've got
or all of the above.
That's really all it takes
That's really all it takes.
Just a little touch;
I hope it's not too much.
(Chorus)
Lest my poor heart breaks
from intangible earthquakes
But something sweet from you
is really all it takes.

I could think that life is mean and wrong
but that I'm the real mistake
and I'll watch my best of efforts dissed
no matter what I make.

I could be a lug who learns too late
I'm my own worst enemy
and still, I know, the lessons go
on and on for eternity.

(Sub-Chorus)
But a smile from you or just a peck
can turn it all around
Or, an "I missed you" or "I'm glad you're here"
can lift me off the ground.
Yeah, just one squeeze or just one note...
You know that's what I love.
I'll take just one, the best you've got
or all of the above.
That's really all it takes
That's really all it takes.
Just a little touch;
I hope that's not too much.
(Chorus)
Lest my poor heart breaks
from all of our mistakes
But something sweet from you
is really all it takes.

Somethin' sweet from you is really all it takes
