It Takes Love Lyrics - Singles - Styx

Written by Glen Burtnik, Bob Berger

sometimes it's hard to smile 

keep looking back 

searching for somebody 

who once was in your life 

baby let him go now 

there'll be something better ahead 

it takes love to make love 

you can't hide behind your broken heart 

it takes love to make love 

let the light of another lover shine on you 

we all have tears to cry 

but there comes a day 

to leave your tears behind you 

and give your heart 

someplace to start 

and if you find your way there 

there'll be someone waiting for you 

it takes love to make love 

you can't hide behind your broken heart 

it takes love to make love 

let the light of another lover shine on you 

like a river 

that flows 

to the sea 

don't wait 

like a river 

flowing down 

whoa...hey...ooh...ah...ooh 

it takes love to make love 

you can't hide behind your broken heart 

it takes love to make love 

let the light of another lover shine on you 

it takes love to make love 

never mind the broken heart baby 

it takes love to make love 

let the light of another lover shine on you
