Whatever It Takes.

We got engaged.
I moved you in with me.
I got you a cat.
I got you another one.
I got you a car.
That's what you wanted.
Those things I did because I love you.

We moved away from there.
I left my friends behind.
I changed my life.
I bought the large house.
I bought the fancy furniture.
That's what you wanted.
Those things I did because I love you.

We've grown up together.
I've shared wonderful times with you.
I've gone through difficult times with you.
I've worked hard to be what you wanted.
I've worked hard to help you be what you wanted.
That's what you wanted.
Those things I did because I love you.

We can have a wonderful life together.
I'll travel the world with you.
I'll party with you.
I'll be adventurous with you.
I'll be irresponsible with you.
That's what you wanted.
Those things I would do because I love you.

We can devote our love to each other.
I will marry you.
I will live for you.
I would die for you.
I would risk everything for you.
That's what you wanted.
Those things I would do because I love you.

Now you say you're not sure what you want.
I will do whatever it takes.
Whatever it takes, I will do because I love you.
