Whatever It Takes is a song I co-wrote with Brian Hobbs (RIP). I am singing. Brian is producing. It's a positive uplifting song about making the most of your relationship.

Lyrics

Whatever It Takes

Old empty promises
Angry words only make things worse
Caught in the silences
Where every move seems like it’s rehearsed

We’ve been down that road before
But this time I’m sure
It doesn’t have to be that way
There must be something more

Whatever it takes
I’m gonna make it happen
Willing to risk all that I am
I’m gonna make this love worth living
Cause I’m ready to do whatever it takes

I used to hide myself
Tried so hard not to feel the pain
Too proud to ask for help
So easy to find someone else to blame

I’ve made those mistakes before
But this time I’m sure
It doesn’t have to be that way
I know there’s something more

Chorus

You talk like it’s over
But don’t say that we’re through
Hard times just bring people closer
If they’re willing to do
Whatever it takes

Chorus
