just like that

Bonnie Raitt

I watched him circle 'round the block
finally stopped at mine
Took a while before he knocked like all he had was time
"Excuse me, ma'am, maybe you can help
the directions weren't so clear
I'm looking for Olivia Zand
they said I might find her here"
Well, I looked real hard and asked him
"What she's got he's looking for? "
Said, "There's somethin' I think
she'd want to know" and I let him in the door
It's not like me to trust so quick, caught me by surprise
But som?thin' about him gave me eas?
right there in his eyes

And just like that your life can change
if I hadn't looked away
My boy might still be with me now, he'd be 25 today
No knife can carve away the stain, no drink can drown regret
They say Jesus brings you peace
and grace, well, He ain't found me yet

Na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, na
Na, na, na-na-na-na

He sat down and took a deeper breath
then looked right in my face
I heard about the son you lost, how you left without a trace
I've spent years just tryna find you
so I could finally let you know
It was your son's heart that saved me
and a life you gave us both

And just like that your life can change
look what the angels send
I lay my head upon his chest
and I was with my boy again
Well, I've spent so long in darkness
I never thought the night would end
But somehow grace has found me and I had to let Him in

Na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, na
Na, na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, na
Na, na, na-na-na
Na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, na
Na, na, na-na-na
Na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, na
Na, na, na-na-na-na
