I have what it takes

Lyrics by John Coughlan

I've made mistakes all over the place
That blew up in my face
Yes they blew up in my face
Not knowing when to cut to the chase
When to put on the brakes
Or when to pick up the pace
I never care what others may say
They don't understand
O, it's not in their hands
They cannot see what I can see
What it means to me
Having you here

Tell me
I have what it takes
Have what it takes
To do it my own way

But now despite the bruises and aches
I remain in the race
Yes I remain in the race
By knowing when to balance the haste
When to make my own break
And to create my own space
So I don’t care what others may say
They have no idea
‘Bout how I deal with the fear
And with the pain I can’t explain
Living for a dream
Living this dream

Tell me
I have what it takes
Have what it takes
To do it my own way

I love you, yes I do
I want you
My singular guiding light
Bright throughout the night

Tell me
I have what it takes
Have what it takes
To do it my own way
