Black Star Riders – What Will It Take? lyrics

[Verse 1]
What will it take for me to make you smile?
What will it take for me to make you mine?
What will it take? Can we negotiate?
What will it take? What will it take?
What does it take? Does it take more than a lot?
What does it take? Does it take more than we got?
What does it take? Can we communicate?
What does it take? What does it take?

[Pre-Chorus]
I think it's gonna take a miracle
To turn this thing around (To turn this thing around)

[Chorus]
What will it take
To change the nothing that we've got?
What will it take
To turn it into something that we want?
What will take
Before we see the light?
What will it take?

[Verse 2]
What will it take for me to make you see?
What will it take for me to set you free?
What will it take? Can we reciprocate?
What will it take? What will it take?
What does it take to change your point of view?
What does it take to stop this world from being cruel?
What does it take? Can we cooperate?
What does it take? What will it take?

[Pre-Chorus]
I think it's gonna take a miracle
To turn this thing around (To turn this thing around)

[Chorus]
What will it take
To change the nothing that we've got?
What will it take
To turn it into something that we want?
What will take
Before we see the light?

[Bridge]
They came to wreck it all and ruin our lives
These days, only the strong survive
We can't replace all the memories we lost
Why must love and happiness always come at such a cost? (Hey)

[Chorus]
What will it take
To change the nothing that we've got?
What will it take
To turn it into something that we want?
What will take
Before we see the light?

[Outro]
Oh, what will it take?
What will it take?
What will it take?
What will it take?
What will it take? (What will it take?)
Yeah, what will it take (Oh, what will it take?)
Before we see the light? (What will it take?)
What will it take?
