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
~#**************#~
And we both know what it feels like when you lose
~#**************#~
But Id bet my life on a roll of the dice for you
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
If thats what it takes, thats what Ill do
~#**************#~
Tonights the night, Im gonna prove it to you
~#**************#~
Do I have to break down, baby just to break through
~#**************#~
If thats what it takes, thats what Ill do
~#**************#~
If thats what it takes…
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
I bet you counted all the tears up that youve cried
~#**************#~
I bet you swore youd never let love back inside
~#**************#~
Because 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 Im driving blind, Id lay it all on the line for you
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
If thats what it takes, thats what Ill do
~#**************#~
Tonights the night, Im gonna prove it to you
~#**************#~
Do I have to break down, baby just to break through
~#**************#~
If thats what it takes, thats what Ill do
~#**************#~
If thats what it takes…
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
So, when you feel like jumping
~#**************#~
Just when your heart starts pumping
~#**************#~
When youre standing out on that ledge
~#**************#~
Staring over the edge
~#**************#~
Ill be there to talk to you down
~#**************#~
Ill be there before you hit the ground
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
If thats what it takes, thats what Ill do
~#**************#~
Tonights the night, Im gonna 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 we take the time to do it right, I know well put 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, Id do anything baby
~#**************#~
Id do anything you want me to baby if its me and you
~#**************#~
Its alright, alright, alright, alright
~#**************#~
Oh baby
