On a night when
Every line is a curse,
I thought I'd save you,
I keep making it worse.
I would give everything I own
for what it takes.
I would give everything I own
for the love it takes.
I won't leave you,
All you have is that spell,
Cast it will you .
Make me glad make me well.
I would give everything I own for what it takes.
I would give everything I own for what it takes.
I will try and leave it all behind and go for what it takes to let it show.
But there's reasons you can't see.
You will be the end of me, with feelings I can't feel.
Cos when I needed someone you left me floored.
That feeling has gone, I can't let go.
You know that I'd change if I had the love it takes.
The love it takes...
