Whatever It Takes Lyrics by Anita Baker

Whatever It Takes

I've always told you
I'd give anything
My baby, you've been
My best, my only friend
There's nothing like the joy you bring

I wonder what would happen
If you would trust in me
I'd make you believe
I'd make you see
No need to run from me

I'll make you feel
Like never before
Here I stand
Heart in hand
Help me find the door
Anybody can see
Baby you've been hurt before
Let me heal your pain
It won't ever hurt no more

Whatever it takes to make you happy baby
Whatever it takes to make you smile
Whatever it takes to make you feel good baby
I'll be around

One moment spent near you
Removes all my pain
Be a miracle soothe me
Your heart can move me
I can not explain
Burdens get heavy
Become too much to bear
Honey don't you say nothing
Hold on I'm coming
I want you to know
That I'll be there

I'll make you feel
Like never before
Willing and able baby
Open up the door
Anybody can see
Baby you've been hurt before
Let me heal all your pain
Never let you hurt anymore

[Musical interlude]

Whatever it takes to make you happy baby
Whatever it takes to make you smile
Whatever it takes to make you feel good baby
I'll be around
