[Verse 1] Counting pennies of my patience Wondering what buys a heart Is there a counter at the station Where the real things start? I trace the lines upon your table Try to measure what you weigh If I am steady, if I'm able Would you stay? [Pre-Chorus] How many miles of open highway? How many pieces of my pride? Tell me the toll to find your doorway With nothing left to hide [Chorus] What will it take to make you love me? How high the wall, how deep the sea? I'd spend it all, I'd give you everything Just to know what you see in me What will it take? [Verse 2] I checked my pockets for a currency That sounds like honesty Maybe a melody or bravery Set us both free You look right through my careful questions Like you already know the sum I'm standing here with good intentions Waiting for it to come [Pre-Chorus] How many miles of open highway? How many pieces of my pride? Tell me the toll to find your doorway With nothing left to hide [Chorus] What will it take to make you love me? How high the wall, how deep the sea? I'd spend it all, I'd give you everything Just to know what you see in me [Bridge] Maybe there is no price tag hanging On the best kind of grace Maybe it's just two shadows landing In the exact same place No calculation, no accounting Just falling without a map Just you and me and nothing mounting To take it all back [Final Chorus] What will it take to make you love me? How high the wall, how deep the sea? I'd spend it all, I'd give you everything Just to know what you see in me What will it take? To make you love me
