What It Takes |
| There goes my old girlfriend |
| There’s another diamond ring |
| And all those late night promises? |
| I guess they don’t mean a thing |
| So, baby, what’s the story? |
| Did you find another man? |
| Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made? |
| When you don’t look back |
| I guess the feelings start to fade away |
| I used to feel your fire |
| But now it’s cold inside |
| And you’re back on the street |
| Like you didn’t miss a beat, yeah |
| Tell me what it takes to let you go |
| Tell me how the pain’s supposed to go |
| Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night |
| Without thinking you lost everything that was |
| Good in your life to the toss of the dice |
| Tell me what it takes to let you go |
| Yeah |
| Girl, before I met you |
| I was F.I.N.E, fine |
| But your love made me a prisoner |
| Yeah, my heart’s been doing time |
| You spent me up like money |
| Then you hung me out to dry |
| It was easy to keep all your lies in disguise |
| 'Cause you had me in deep with the devil in your eyes |
| Tell me what it takes to let you go |
| Tell me how the pain’s supposed to go |
| Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night |
| Without thinking you lost everything that was |
| Good in your life to the toss of the dice |
| Tell me what it takes to let you go |
| Aw, guitar! |
| Tell me that you’re happy that you’re on your own, yeah, yeah, yeah |
| Tell me that it’s better when you’re all alone |
| Tell me that your body doesn’t miss my touch |
| Tell me that my loving didn’t mean that much |
| Tell me you aren’t dying when you’re crying for me |
| Tell me what it takes to let you go (Ooh) |
| Tell me how the pain’s supposed to go (Oh yeah) |
| Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night |
| Without thinking you lost everything that was |
| Good in your life to the toss of the dice |
| Tell me who’s to blame for thinking twice |
| No, no, no, no, 'cause I don’t want to burn in paradise |
| Ooo |
| Let go, let go, let go |
| Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go |
| Let it go, let it go, let it go |
| Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go |
| I don’t want to burn, I don’t want to burn |
| Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go |
| Yeah |
