Bon Jovi - If Thats What It Takes

If Thats What It Takes

I played the part of a broken heart upon a shelf
I played that part so lonely and so well
Thought that love belonged to someone else not me and you
Yeah, I know that youve been shattered , you been bruised
We both know what it feels like when you lose
But Id bet my life on the roll of the dice for you
If thats what it takes, thats what Id do
Tonite s the night, Imgonna prove it to you
Do I have to break down, baby just to break through
If thats what it takes, thats what Id do
If thats what it takes...
I bet you counted all the tears I bet youve cried
I bet you swore youd never let love back inside
Cause it hurt you way too bad to say good-bye
Now, therell be times when I might put us to the test
And its hard for broken hearts to just forget
But Imdriving blind, I will lay it all on the line for you
If thats what it takes, thats what Id do
Tonite s the night, Imgonna prove it to you
Do I have to break down, baby just to break through
If thats what it takes, thats what Id do
If thats what it takes...
So, when you feel like jumping,
Just when your heart starts pumpking
When you are standing out on that ledge-staring over the edge
I will be there to talk you down, I will be there before you hit the ground
If thats what it takes, thats what Id do
Tonite s the night, Imgonna prove it to you
Do I have to break down, baby just to break through
If thats what it takes, thats what Id do
If thats what it takes...
If thats what it takes, thats what Id do
If we take the time to do it right, I know well pull through
If it took all my life, Id prove it to you
If thats what it takes, thats what Id do
If thats what it takes...
