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

sky

way to go

grow
