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 you've been shattered , you been bruised
We both know what it

feels like when you lose
But I'd bet my life on the roll of the dice for you

[Coro]
If that's what it takes,

that's what I'd do
Tonite 's the night, I'm gonna prove it to you
Do I have to break down, baby just to break

through
If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do
If that's what it takes...

I bet you counted all the

tears I bet you've cried
I bet you swore you'd never let love back inside
'Cause it hurt you way too bad to say

good-bye
Now, there'll be times when I might put us to the test
And it's hard for broken hearts to just

forget
But I'm driving blind, I'll lay it all on the line for you

[Coro]
So, when you feel like

jumping,
Just when your heart starts pumpking
When you're standing out on that ledge-staring over the edge
I'll

be there to talk you down, I'll be there before you hit the ground

[Coro]
