If That's What It Takes ( Phil Galdston, Jean-Jacques Goldman ) You're the bravest of hearts, you're the strongest of souls You're my light in the dark, you're the place I call home You can say it's all right, but I know that you're breaking up inside I see it in your eyes Even you face the night afraid and alone That's why I'll be there When the storm rises up, when the shadows descend Ev'ry beat of my heart, ev'ry day without end Ev'ry second I live, that's the promise I make Baby, that's what I'll give, if that's what it takes If that's what it takes You can sleep in my arms, you don't have to explain When your heart's crying out, baby, whisper my name 'Cause I've reached out for you when the thunder is crashing up above You've given me your love When your smile like the sun that shines through the pain That's why I'll be there When the storm rises up, when the shadows descend Ev'ry beat of my heart, ev'ry day without end I will stand like a rock, I will bend till I break Till there's no more to give, if that's what it takes I will risk everything, I will fight, I will bleed I will lay down my life, if that's what you need Ev'ry second I live, that's the promise I make Baby, that's what I'll give, if that's what it takes Through the wind and the rain, through the smoke and the fire When the fear rises up, when the wave's ever higher I will lay down my heart, my body, my soul I will hold on all night and never let go Ev'ry second I live, that's the promise I make Baby, that's what I'll give, if that's what it takes If that's what it takes Every day If that's what it takes Every day |
