Don't Take Your Love Away From Me by Betty Elders

Don't Take Your Love Away From Me

What is a man but flesh and bone
Breaking his back for all he owns
No matter what he's dreaming of
He'd give it up for a thing called love

Don't take your love away from me
It'll break my heart
Honey can't you see
It's all that matters
It's all we need
Don't take your love away from me

What is a woman but sacrifice
Be a good mother
Such a good wife
No matter what she's dreaming of
She gives her heart in the name of love

Don't take your love away from me
It'll break my heart
Honey can't you see
It's all that matters
It's all we need
Don't take your love away from me

This mortal world of saint and sin
Is every woman's
Is every man's
Down to the dust we are made of
Our only hope is a thing called Love

Don't take your love away from me
It'll break my heart
Honey can't you see
It's all that matters
It's all we need
Don't take your love away from me
