So whatever it takes
 With every dream that first broke
 And then moved out of sight
 Another door to my heart
 Has been closed and locked tight

 So nothing gets in there
 And there can be no doubt
 There is so much inside
 That can't find a way out

 So whatever it takes
 I will do it to unlock these doors

 Don't you think this is
 What life is about after all
 We must stand up no matter
 How often we fall

 Because once we give in
 All the doors remain closed
 And under lock and key they will keep
 The things we need most

 So whatever it takes
 We should do it to unlock these doors
