Lyrics
It Takes (Pilot)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It takes a man to make a mess
What if I'm alone, running on empty, and distressed?
It takes a boy to ask for help
What if I'm amazed when I can't do this by myself?
It takes a lot to take your time
Maybe while I waited, other people changed their minds
It takes away from what we built
I guess that keeping quiet doesn't help you when you're ill
Come back, I've had enough
Too bad if the answer's I'm sorry
Hold back, are you man enough?
Stop that, are you out of love?
Come back, I've had enough
Too bad if the answer's I'm sorry
Hold back, are you man enough?
Stop that, are you out of love?
It takes me back to simpler times
It's been so complicated, that's too easy to define
It takes too long now to respond
I know that it'd be easy if I felt like I belonged
Come back, I've had enough
Too bad if the answer's I'm sorry
Hold back, are you man enough?
Stop that, are you out of love?
Come back, I've had enough
Too bad if the answer's I'm sorry
Hold back, are you man enough?
Stop that
And I'm harboring just enough
(Couldn't get up, couldn't get up)
And I'm emptying my only love
(Couldn't get up, couldn't get up)
I'm harboring just enough
(Couldn't get up, couldn't get up)
I'm emptying my only love
(Couldn't get up, couldn't get up)
Come back, I've had enough
Too bad if the answer's I'm sorry
Hold back, are you man enough?
Stop that, are you out of love?
Come back, I've had enough
Too bad if the answer's I'm sorry
Hold back, are you man enough?
Stop that, are you out of love?
Come back, I've had enough
Too bad if the answer's I'm sorry
Hold back, are you man enough?
Stop that, are you out of love?
