Lyrics That's All It Took - 1973 Live Version - Gram Parsons

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

Okay, well we're gonna have to do this long distance
That last song was brought to you by Dr. Pepper
From San Antonio
Anybody who's expecting fancy guitar intros on this song can forget it
