What It Takes Lyrics

Take me to the desert

Leave me there to dry

In the sand under the sun

The cold moon shivering at night

If that is What It Takes

To make me feel alive

Even sadness helps me see the sun

When it eventually shines

When it shines

Drop me in the ocean

I'll find the shore or the depths

I'll swim some more or dunk my head

If there's absolutely nothing left

If that is What It Takes

To make me feel alive

Even sadness helps me see the sun

When it eventually shines

And the darkness helps me sleep at night

When the time is finally right

When it's right

Finally right

But I found me in the valley

With not much left to give

Until I stop it's just me and God

And a little will left to live

If that is What It Takes

To make me feel alive (What It Takes)

Even sadness helps me see the sun

When it eventually shines (What It Takes)

And the darkness helps me sleep at night

When the time is finally right (What It Takes)

It's finally right

If that is What It Takes

To make me feel alive

Even sadness helps me see the sun

When it eventually shines

And the darkness helps me sleep at night

When the time is finally right

It's finally right

It's finally right
