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

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 somethin’ about him gave me ease
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

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 trying to 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
I spent so long in darkness,
Never thought the night would end
But somehow grace has found me
And I had to let him in
