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 loose
But I'd bet my life
on the roll of the dice for you

Chorus:
If that's what it takes
That's what I do
Tonight'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 do
If that's what it takes

I bet you counted all the tears up that
you've cried
I bet you swore, you'd never let
love back inside
'Cause it hurt you way too bad
to say goodbye
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

Chorus:...

So when you feel like jumping
Just when your heart starts pumping
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

Chorus:...

If we take time to do it right
I know we'll pull through
If I took all my life
I'd prove it to you
If that's what it takes
That's what I do
If that's what it takes
I'm doing anything babe
oh yeah
I'm doing anything you want me to
babe if is me and you
it's alright....
