Original
“One Look (All It Took)” is my first acoustic original, written Oct 2012. Here’s me playing it Jun 2013:
[Update 6/5: I attended a song writers workshop, which had great suggestions on tweaking lyrics, improving verse flow, & reducing length. I’ve since revised the song to below:]
LYRICS for “One Look (All It Took)” by CHAD SPROCK
VERSE1
Far away, in a distance place
through the fog, makes me want to chase
a song that sparks my ear
a signal from the pier.
Rowing calmly in an inlit bay
mood feels magic makes me want to stay
canoeing, drifting near
her voice I think i hear
VERSE2:
Gliding smoothly to the concerts source
hear her softly, must be right on course
but wait where did she go
some rain delays the show
Doc to land, soon a stormy sea
miles separate, but fatefully
her photo drifts my way
just floating there at bay
CHORUS
One look is all it took, from your hair down to your feet
One look is all it took, girl you stun me feel the heat
One look is all it took, got me wanting you so bad
One look is all it took, I’ll be the best you ever had
BRIDGE
Lovely, so lovely, is she x2
oooo x2
VERSE3:
Far away, in a distance place
A silly line, now a warm embrace
her beauty makes me smile
she’s hot, she’s my desire
Besides her looks & her talent mate
one of kind, heart will captivate
a pose so fine and free
in that photo by the sea
CHORUS
One look is all it took, from your hair down to your feet
One look is all it took, girl you stun me feel the heat
One look is all it took, got me wanting you so bad
One look is all it took, I’ll be the best you ever had
