oeh yeah yeah
oeh

been a long time since the first time I tried to let you know
life is too short better cheer up baby or let me go
every night I'm on pins and needles wondering what to say
I'm working to hard just to keep our love from fading away

tell me what it takes
tell me what it takes
to get a happy look
and a smile on your face
tell me what it takes
tell me what it takes
to make the sadness end
and start you living again

oeh-oeh-oeh tell me what it takes
oeh-oeh-oeh tell me what it takes
oeh-oeh-oeh tell me what it takes
oeh-oeh-oeh tell me what it takes

there's a blue moon or a bright sun shining in every sky
better think twice before this life baby just passes you by
everyone knows there's no short way of telling which way to go
open your heart come on let's start making our new love grow

tell me what it takes
tell me what it takes
to get a happy look
and a smile on your face
tell me what it takes
tell me what it takes
to make the sadness end
and start you living again

oeh-oeh-oeh tell me what it takes
oeh-oeh-oeh tell me what it takes
oeh-oeh-oeh tell me what it takes
oeh-oeh-oeh tell me what it takes

love is not an angel and life without danger just don't exist
when love is crucified there's no survival there's nothing left

oeh
yeah yeah yeah

tell me what it takes
tell me what it takes
to get a happy look
and a smile on your face
tell me what it takes
tell me what it takes
to make the sadness end
and start you living again

tell me what it takes
tell me what it takes
to get a happy look
and a smile on your face
tell me what it takes
tell me what it takes
to make the sadness end
and start you living again

oeh-oeh-oeh tell me what it takes
oeh-oeh-oeh tell me what it takes
oeh-oeh-oeh tell me what it takes
oeh-oeh-oeh tell me what it takes
oeh-oeh-oeh tell me what it takes
oeh-oeh-oeh tell me what it takes
oeh-oeh-oeh
