The Love You Save

People, I've been misled

And I've been afraid

I've been hit in the head

I've been left for dead

I've been abused

Been abused

And I've been accused

I've been refused a piece of bread

But I ain't never

In my life before

Seen so many love affairs

Go wrong as I do today

I want you to stop

And find out what's wrong

Get it right

Please leave love alone

Because the love you save today

Maybe will be your own

I've been pushed around

And I've been lost and found

I've been given till sundown

To get out of town

I've been taken outside

And I've been brutalized

And I've always been the one

Who's had to smile and apologize

But I ain't never

In my life before

Seen so many love affairs

Go wrong as I do today

So, I want you to stop

And find out what's wrong

Get it right

Please leave love alone

Because the love you save today

Maybe will be your own
