Lyrics:

[INTRO]

[VERSE 1]
I’m just a country man, edges kind of rough
Lonely like a back road, dreams covered in dust
Gave up on love, with no end in sight
Until you came along things never worked out right.

[PRE CHORUS]
Now pain no longer finds its way
You turned my nights into the day.
Your smile’s where I want to stay
It lifts me higher every day

[CHORUS]
All it took was your loving touch
To let me know I was enough
You’re a gift sent from above
Healed my heart with your endless love
You made my broken heart believe
You brought the best man out of me
And all it took was your loving touch.

[Instrumental Break]

[VERSE 2]
You saw the best in me, like no one could.
made this old house feel, like it should.
You light the fire in the, coldest night
You turned the cold in me to warm and bright.

[CHORUS]
All it took was your loving touch
To let me know I was enough
You’re a gift sent from above
Healed my heart with your endless love
You made my broken heart believe
You brought the best man out of me
And all it took was your loving touch.
[Post-Chorus]

[BRIDGE]
Your smile’s the place I want to stay
Where pain no longer finds it’s way
Like sunlight breaking through the rain
You’re the reason love lives here again

[CHORUS]
All it took was your loving touch
To let me know I was enough
You’re a gift sent from above
Healed my heart with your endless love
You made my broken heart believe
You brought the best man out of me
You brought the best man out of me
And all it took was your loving touch.

[Outro]

Comments by composer(s):

I heard Sheryl's songwriting talent at one of these meetings and contacted her right away for a cowrite. We worked well together for a great cowrite. There is more that we'd like to rewrite.
