If That's What It Takes Lyrics

Artist: Bon Jovi
Album: These Days

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 MY LIFE ON A ROLL OF THE DICE FOR YOU
CHORUS: 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...
SO, WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE JUMPING
JUST WHEN YOUR HEART STARTS PUMPING
WHEN YOU'RE STANDING OUR 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 THAT'S WHAT IT TAKES, THAT'S WHAT I'D 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'D DO
IF THAT'S WHAT IT TAKES...
CHORUS 2: IF THAT'S WHAT IT TAKES, THAT'S WHAT I'D DO
IF WE TAKE THE TIME TO DO IT RIGHT, I KNOW WE'LL PULL THROUGH
IT IF TOOK ALL MY LIFE, I'D PROVE IT TO YOU
IF THAT'S WHAT IT TAKES, THAT'S WHAT I'D DO
IF THAT'S WHAT IT TAKES...
