Just A Few Little Words---- Copyright (c) 1999 Walter Westfall

It only takes a few little words to cause much pain,
and it only takes a few words to cause much happiness.
It only takes a few words to crush a heart,
and it only takes a few words to give a heart joy.

It only takes a few words to alienate a friendship,
and it only takes a few words to make a friendship blossom.
It only takes a few words to cause someone to go astray,
and it only takes a few words to help them find their way back again.

It only takes a few words to destroy someone's hopes and dreams,
and it only takes a few words to give a person reason to hope and dream again.

It only takes a few words to make someone cry,
and it only takes a few words to take their tears away.
It only takes a few words to make someone's day sad and dreary,
and it only takes a few words to make someone's day happy and cheery.

It only takes a few words to cause dark clouds to appear,
and it only takes a few words to chase all those dark clouds away.
Just a few little words can comfort one in grief, can soothe a broken heart,
can bring one back from the brink of despair.

Just a few little words can help someone cope,
can help someone lonely feel not so alone.
Just a few words can calm someone's fears,
and ease someone's troubled thoughts.

Just a few little words can brighten someone's day,
and make their road in life easier to travel.
Just a few little words can lift someone's burdens,
and help them make it through the day.
