Whatever It Takes

[Verse 1]
Just when I thought
Love was impossible
And I was about
To get philosophical
There she was
With a coffee to go

[Verse 2]
Perfectly framed
By a beautiful Basquiat
I got endorphins
Up to the maximum
When she said
"Let's call a taxi and go"

[Pre-Chorus 1]
It's no secret
Love will mess you up
If you don't mean it
Better believe it

[Chorus 1]
Baby, I want you
Let there be no mistake
We're gonna find out
Whatever it takes

Baby I want to
You got me wide awake
We're gonna find out
Whatever it takes

[Verse 3]
Back in the cab
Feeling affectional
I'll do my best
To be intellectual
Lover of art
Teach me, I'm dying to know

[Verse 4]
Let's ride all night
Let's make a thing of it
Stop off in Vegas
And put a ring on it
Shut off the meter
Whenever you're ready to go

[Pre-Chorus 1]
It's no secret
Love will mess you up
If you don't mean it
Better believe it

[Chorus]
Baby, I want you
Let there be no mistake
We're gonna find out
Whatever it takes

Baby, I want to
You got me wide awake
We're gonna find out
Whatever it takes

[Bridge]
Just when I thought
Love was impossible
When I was about
To get philosophical, oh
Whatever it takes
(Whatever it takes)

There she was
Right by a Basquiat
Endorphins
Up to the maximum, oh
Whatever it takes
(Whatever it takes)

[Pre-Chorus 2]
(Just when I thought)
(Just when I thought)
(Love was impossible)
(Just when I thought)
(Love was impossible)
Baby

[Chorus 2]
Let there be no mistake
We're gonna find out
Whatever it takes
(Whatever)

Baby, I want to
You got me wide awake
We're gonna find out
Whatever it takes

[Outro]
(Whatever) Whatever it takes
(Whatever) oh, oh
(Whatever)
(Whatever) Whatever it takes

(Whatever)
(Whatever)
(Whatever)
