Whatever It Takes (with Ron Sexsmith)

We've all been hurt by love

It's out of our hands

For all it's worth, I'm drawing a line

That's in the sand

Another morning just won't do

I need your love to shine on through

Or it won't be new

Whatever it takes, my love

I'll find it

Whatever it takes, my love

To put the lonely days behind us

I'm layin' it down

Whatever it takes, my love

If there's a chance for two hearts to celebrate

To blow out some candles

And tempt the hand of fate

You make a wish, I'll make one too

(I'll make a wish)

Close your eyes, love, when you do

Or it won't come true (It won't come true)

Whatever it takes, my love (Oh whatever it takes, my love)

I'll find it

Whatever it takes, my love

To put the lonely days behind us

I'm layin' it down (Layin' it down, down, down)

Whatever it takes, my love (Whatever it takes, my love)

'Cause I've been wandering around with the same old blues

(Same old blues)

That have been draggin' me down

If you feel the same way too

Maybe it just takes two

And if we give thanks for our love at each new dawn

We'll find the strength and the will to carry on

The sun alone will never do (Oh)

Without your love to shine on through

It just won't be new

(Whatever it takes, my love, I'll find it, whatever it takes, love)

Whatever, oh, whatever it takes, my love

To put the lonely days behind us

I'm layin' it down

Whatever it takes, my love (Whatever it takes)

Oh (Whatever it takes, I'll find it, whatever it takes, my love)

Whatever it takes, my love

Oh, to put the lonely days behind us

I'm layin' it down

Whatever it takes, my love (Whatever it takes)

My love, my love (Ooh ooh ooh)

Whatever it takes (Whatever it takes, my love, I'll find it)

Whatever it takes, my love (Whatever it takes, my love)

To put the lonely days behind us

I'm layin' it down

Whatever it takes, my love (Whatever it takes, my love)
