I lay all the traps out   But you just set 'em free   Lock the door and hide yourself   You can't get ride of me    One little moment just to be with you   You're everything I think about   You're all I say and do      I can't go much further   But I can't walk away    If I ask you this question   What will I say?      What's it gonna take to win your heart   What's it gonna take right from the start   Tell me, am I just wasting my time?   Give it to me straight-lay on the line   Tell me all I need to make you mine   What's it gonna take, boy   Am I the one for you?      Trying hard to win you    But I'm losing every game   In spite of all my hopes and dreams   The problem's still the same   Each and every night I pray for you   You're everything I think about   You're all I say and do      I want you to want me   But I won't call your hand   If I knoew what you're feeling   Then I'd understand      What's it gonna take to win your heart   What's it gonna take right from the start   Tell me, am I just wasting my time?   Give it to me straight-lay on the line   Tell me all I need to make you mine   What's it gonna take, boy   Am I the one for you?      Knock on your door a thousand times   Practiced my moves, rehearsed all my lines   You shut me out, a cold-hearted thing   But it ain't over till the fat lady sings      Now I'm looking so good, how can you resist me   A week from now you'll be sorry that you missed me   For cryin' out loud and for goodness sake    Tell me now boy, what's it gonna take?   What's it gonna take? What's it gonna take?      What's it gonna take to win your heart   What's it gonna take right from the start   Tell me, am I just wasting my time?   Give it to me straight-lay on the line   Tell me all I need to make you mine   What's it gonna take, boy   Am I the one for you?
