What song is this? It's driving me mad

I have seen a few times a Voom HD Network Promotional commercial. It has cut scenese from various movies and shows. There's a song that's played with it, song by a male and I cannot find it.

My little brain only held onto a few lyrics...

"when our eyes meet" "our hands touched" "it was you and your smile that carried me through" "give me one reason, just one reason"

No, its not Tracey Chapman.

Has anyone seen this commercial? Do you know who sings this song?

Thanks,
Paul

Yes, this was in the US and I'm not sure if it was shown elsewhere.

I was thinking about it today and the guy sining sounds a LOT like the artist, "John Mayer".

Maybe that helps?

Thanks for your help.

Re: What song is this? It's driving me mad

I think these are the lyrics - have transcribed them from the ad I think you're talking about - but I still can't find it by googling for any of it! Hope it helps. (Is a good tune)

Well I can see you had a rough day baby,
Well maybe I can loosen you up.
And I can see you need a refill baby
Well maybe I can fill up your cup.
And if we hear a slow song maybe we can hold hands
Dancing til the song ends then we'll look up
And if our eyes meet, smiles crack and arms don't fall,
Then we'll both know that we're gonna hook up.

And all the while it was you, it was you and your smile, that carried me from day to day
Give me one reason if you've got one reason, said there ain't no reason that we shouldn't get together tonight.
Give me one reason if you've got one reason, said there ain't no reason that we shouldn't get together tonight.

THAT'S IT! Sorry for the caps. But..... thank you! Now, who sings it and what is the title?

I would love to get that song.

Thanks again,
Paul

This is like some insect that crawled into my ear and is gnawing away at my brain.

Re: What song is this? It's driving me mad

I've corresponded with the author of the song, Howard Dlugasch. He shared with me another great song. He's a fantastic artist and will hopefully have some work publically available, but I'm not positive.

Good stuff and a great guy.
