THE LOVE YOU SAVE (MAY BE YOUR OWN)
By: Joe Tex
(Capo at 1st. fret)
Intro: â â â
People, Iâve been mislead, And Iâve been afraid
Iâve been hit in the head, And left for dead
Iâve been abused, And Iâve been accused
Been refused, a piece of bread
But I ainât never, In my life before
Seen so many love affairs, Go wrong as I do today
(Stop)
I want you to STOP, And find out whats wrong
Get it right, Or just leave love alone
Because the love y â o - u save today, Maybe wi-l-l be your own
â â -
Iâve been pushed around, Iâve been lost and found
Iâve been given til sundown, To get out of town
Iâve been taken outside, And Iâve been brutalized
And Iâve had to always be the one to smile and apologize
But I ainât never, In my life before
Seen so many love affairs, Go wrong as I do today
(Stop)
So STOP, Find out whatâs wrong
Get it right, Or please leave love alone
Because the love you save today, Maybe wi-l-l be your own
