You're in the corner, turning your back, you're runnin' away again
The more I give you, the less that you take, tell me, where is it gonna end?

Whoah-oh - I can see you've felt some pain
Whoah-oh - I know you've been hurt before
Whoah-oh - But I swear you won't get hurt no more - tell me

How much love is it gonna take, to prove I'm not another heartache
Till you begin to let your heart give in, how much love is it gonna take

I'm reachin' for you, gettin' so close, but you're always a step away
I wanna touch you 'n give my love, what is it gonna take

Whoah-oh - I can see it in your eyes
Whoah-oh - that you want to let me in
Whoah-oh - But you're scared that you'll get hurt again - tell me

How much love is it gonna take, to prove I'm not another heartache
Till you begin to let your heart give in, how much love is it gonna take

I've been searchin' for an answer, oooh tell me what it's gonna be

How much love is it gonna take, to prove I'm not another heartache
Till you begin to let your heart give in, how much love is it gonna take
