You’ve Got What It Takes Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Rolling motor, lover sublime
Push me away if you feel so inclined
You've got what it takes

I'll be brother, I'll be guide
I'll take you home when you wanna hide

[Chorus]
You've got what it takes
You've got what it takes
You've got what it takes

[Verse 2]
Clicking machinery, clicking tongues
Ever wondered "What have I done?"
You've got what it takes, but nodbody knows

You confide in me at the end of your days
How you wish you'd written a book or a play
You had what it takes, you had what it takes

[Chorus]
You've got what it takes

[Bridge]
Don't you feel so helpless, don't you feel so low
And when you catch me crying
You'll probably be the first
So don't let nobody else know
[Outro]
You've got what it takes
You've got what it takes
You've got what it takes

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
