That's all it took
The mention of your name
And all my love for you
Burst into flame

I tried so hard
To let you go, but look
How I still tremble at your name
That's all it took

That's all it took
To make me know that I still care
It seems my heart just can't give up
The dreams we used to share

I tell my friends I'm happy
But they read me like a book
And when today I heard them say
Your name, that's all it took

That's all it took
To make me yearn for your embrace
I guess I might as well admit
No one can take your place

I fell for you completely
Sinker, line and hook
And when today I heard them say
Your name, that's all it took
And when today I heard them say
Your name, that's all it took
