Steven Tyler - What It Takes lyrics

[Verse 1] There goes my old girlfriend, there's another diamond ring And, uh, all those late night promises? I guess they don't mean a thing So baby, what's the story? Did you find another man Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made When you don't look back I guess the feelings start to fade away I used to feel your fire, but now it's cold inside And you're back on the street like you didn't miss a beat [Chorus] Tell me what it takes to let you go Tell me how the pain's 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 what it takes to let you go [Verse 2] Yeah Girl, before I met you I was F.I.N.E, fine But your love made me a prisoner, yeah, my heart's been doing time You spent me up like money, then you hung me out to dry It was easy to keep all your lies in disguise Because you had me in deep with the devil in your eyes [Chorus] [Bridge] Tell me that you're happy that you're on your own, yeah, yeah, yeah Tell me that it's better when you're all alone Tell me that your body doesn't miss my touch Tell me that my loving didn't mean that much Tell me you aren't dying when you're crying for me [Chorus] [Outro] Tell me who's to blame for thinking twice No, no, no, no, because I don't want to burn in paradise Ooo Let go, let go, let 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, let it go I don't want to burn, I don't want to burn
