I lay all the traps out
|
But you just set 'em free
|
Lock the door and hide yourself
|
You can't get ride of me
|
One little moment just to be with you
|
You're everything I think about
|
You're all I say and do
|
|
I can't go much further
|
But I can't walk away
|
If I ask you this question
|
What will I say?
|
|
What's it gonna take to win your heart
|
What's it gonna take right from the start
|
Tell me, am I just wasting my time?
|
Give it to me straight-lay on the line
|
Tell me all I need to make you mine
|
What's it gonna take, boy
|
Am I the one for you?
|
|
Trying hard to win you
|
But I'm losing every game
|
In spite of all my hopes and dreams
|
The problem's still the same
|
Each and every night I pray for you
|
You're everything I think about
|
You're all I say and do
|
|
I want you to want me
|
But I won't call your hand
|
If I knoew what you're feeling
|
Then I'd understand
|
|
What's it gonna take to win your heart
|
What's it gonna take right from the start
|
Tell me, am I just wasting my time?
|
Give it to me straight-lay on the line
|
Tell me all I need to make you mine
|
What's it gonna take, boy
|
Am I the one for you?
|
|
Knock on your door a thousand times
|
Practiced my moves, rehearsed all my lines
|
You shut me out, a cold-hearted thing
|
But it ain't over till the fat lady sings
|
|
Now I'm looking so good, how can you resist me
|
A week from now you'll be sorry that you missed me
|
For cryin' out loud and for goodness sake
|
Tell me now boy, what's it gonna take?
|
What's it gonna take? What's it gonna take?
|
|
What's it gonna take to win your heart
|
What's it gonna take right from the start
|
Tell me, am I just wasting my time?
|
Give it to me straight-lay on the line
|
Tell me all I need to make you mine
|
What's it gonna take, boy
|
Am I the one for you?
