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.
How many times have I waited for you
Hoping that you'll just call
And how many times have I wanted to hear
Words you don't say at all.
You know I try so hard
But I can't get through
I've got so much for you.
Chorus:
When tell me what's it gonna take to make you
What's it gonna take
My heart is in your hand
I've done all that I can
How long must I wait?
Well, what's it gonna take to make you love me.
So many nights I think about you
Waiting for love to call
And so many dreams that will never come true
They all have no chance at all
But if you let me in
I can challange you
Oh what I have for you.
Chorus:
When tell me what's it gonna take to make you
What's it gonna take
My heart is in your hand
I've done all that I can
How long must I wait?
Well, tell me what's it gonna take to make you,
What's it gonna take
My heart is in your hand
I've done all that I can
How long will I wait?
Well, what's it gonna take
Well, what's it gonna take
Well, what's it gonna take
to make you love me.
I've never been wrong about feelin' so right
Want you love me too
I've waited so long if just for a night
Baby love me too
And if you let me in
I can challange you
Just what i have for you.
Chorus:
When tell me what's it gonna take to make you
What's it gonna take
Oh, my heart is in your hand
I've done all that I can
How long must I wait?
Baby, tell me what's it gonna take
Well, tell me what's it gonna take to make you,
What's it gonna take
My heart is in your hand
I've done all that I can
How long will I wait?
Baby, what's it gonna take
Baby, what's it gonna take
Baby, what's it gonna take
to make you love me.
