Sometimes That's All It Takes (Bourke/Ferrugia/Clark)
She could tell when he walked in that he’d had one hell of a day
When you wait a lot of tables you can read people that way
She poured a cup of coffee said, “Hon, how’s it been?”
And he opened up to her like she was his best old friend
She was a lighthouse he was a ship passing through her life
He was just talkin’ she was just listening, that’s all he needed that night
(Chorus)
Sometimes that’s all it takes
A touch a word that makes
Somebody’s day somebody’s day
Sometimes that’s all it takes
Sometimes that’s all it takes
When he checked into the hotel he could see the night clerk’s tears
Wondered how could such a young girl look so sad beyond her years
He said, “Miss, are you okay?” She said, “Thanks, I’ll be alright.
I got two kids with the sitter and it’s just been one of those nights.”
She needed some comfort someone to lean on and understand
He didn’t hold her but he gave her a shoulder just by touchin’ her hand
(Chorus)
Sometimes that’s all it takes
A touch a word that makes
Somebody’s day somebody’s day
Sometimes that’s all it takes
Sometimes that’s all it takes
Bridge:
Sometimes me and you feel like there’s nothin’ we can do
But sometimes a smile can move somebody’s mountain
(Repeat Chorus 2 times)
