IT TAKES GUTS |
LyricsIT TAKES GUTS(Papageorge) VERSE #1 IT TAKES GUTS some days just to get outa bed But I know this time I'm in over my head I'm just kidding myself thinking I'm in control When I know I'm in love from my heart and my soul Every waking moment now I think of you IT TAKES GUTS to love you the way that I do VERSE #2 IT TAKES GUTS to throw away my ole black book And not give it a second look And to have to admit to all of my friends That my single days have all come to an end Cause you're not like anyone I ever knew IT TAKES GUTS to love you the way that I do BRIDGE: But there's no way I can change the way I feel There's a sense of helplessness That you get when it's for real VERSE #3 IT TAKES GUTS to live with my heart on the line When I know it could break with no warning sign This is not some bungy jump for joy It's no longer a game that I played as a boy This is gonna take a lifetime to live through IT TAKES GUTS to love you the way that I do BRIDGE: But there's no way I can change the way I feel There's a sense of helplessness That you get when it's for real REPEAT VERSE #1 IT TAKES GUTS some days just to get outa bed But I know this time I'm in over my head I'm just kidding myself thinking I'm in control When I know I'm in love from my heart and my soul Every waking moment now I think of you IT TAKES GUTS to love you the way that I do IT TAKES GUTS to love you the way that I do IT TAKES GUTS to love you the way that I do Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! (c)2009 Once in a Lifetime Music (BMI) |

| Story Behind the Song: I was reading a biography of Bob Dylan, "Don't Look Back," about his travels at an early age and it occurred to me that he had a lot of guts. Even though this doesn't have anything to do with the song, I remember saying out loud, "that takes guts," and that's what inspired the song! |
