what IT takes

What It Takes

There goes my old girlfriend
Theres another diamond ring
And, uh, all those late night promises
I guess they dont mean a thing
So baby, whats the story?
Did you find another man?
Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made?
When you dont look back I guess the feelings start to fade away
I used feel your fire
But now its cold inside
And youre back on the street
Like you didnt miss a beat, yeah
Tell me what it takes to let you go
Tell me how the pains supposed to go
Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
Without thinkin 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 hearts been doin time
You spent me up like money
And 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 pains 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 what it takes to let you go
Guitar!

Tell that youre happy that youre on your own, yeah, yeah, yeah
Tell me that its better when youre all alone
Tell me that your body doesnt miss my touch
Tell me that my lovin didnt mean that much
Tell me you aint dyin when youre cryin for me
Tell me what it takes to let you go
Tell me how the pains 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 whos to blame for thinkin twice
No, no, no, no cause I dont wanna burn in paradise
Ooo, let go, let go, let go, I dont wanna burn in paradise
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 dont wanna burn, I dont wanna burn
