What It Takes

by Avrii Monrielle   Apr 12, 2007


Tell me what it takes to have you in my arms tonight
How long must I wait to make sure everything's alright?
How can we stop ourselves from getting in another fight?
Tell me what it takes to have you in my arms tonight

Tell me what it takes to have you in my arms tonight
I feel so afraid when you're right here by my side
I cannot act like me; my true self seems to hide
Tell me what it takes to have you in my arms tonight

Tell me what it takes to have you in my arms tonight
What should I do when everything about you makes me sigh?
What must I do to when in the dark, you are my light?
Tell me what it takes to have you in my arms tonight

Tell me what it takes to have you in my arms tonight
I want to shake away the numbness that I feel inside
I wish for once this wasn't such a big surprise
Tell me what it takes to have you in my arms tonight

    I love these lines. Really, it's undescribable how much they hit me. It's like you wrote what I was asking myself inside...
    good on you, you're amazing.
