Lyrics
That’s What Love Takes
Kimberly Hales Kime/Tim Behrens
V1
It’s our life; it's the story of us
watching our little ones climb on the bus
Every day, we have a routine
It’s all Captain Crunch, packing lunch, and chugging caffeine
V2
It's our life; it's the story of us
Working down the mundane list of “have to do” stuff
You wash the dishes, while I fold the clothes
Then it's goodbye kisses, parting wishes, and off to work we go
Pre-chorus
One more chapter, a turn of the page
Chorus
Bending, never breaking
A whole lotta giving and a little less taking
things go wrong, we carry on
Meet each other more than half way
That’s what love takes... that what love takes
V3
It’s our life; it's the magic we share
Exciting, but comfy like an easy chair
It’s down to earth, so tried and so true
Here’s to front porch swaying, grand kids playing, growing old with you
repeat pre-chorus and chorus
Bridge
Our home is built on a cornerstone
That can weather any kind of storm
It’s held together by our faith and trust
and on the days we lose our way
say unkind words we shouldn't say
stepping on each other's last good nerve
life throws us curves, but we hold on
Chorus-outtro
Bending, never breaking
A whole lotta giving and a little less taking
When things go wrong, we carry on
Meet each other more than half way
that's what love takes
meet each other more than halfway,
that's what love takes
yeah, that's what love takes
