Don’t Take Your Love Away

[Verse 1]
The street was a river, middle of June
A river that ran through our home
You were gone traveling a couple of days
So I dried out our things all alone

[Pre-Chorus]
And I opened a box I'd never seen
Full of old letters written to you

[Chorus]
Don't take your love away, she said
Don't take your love away

[Verse 2]
Page by page I laid them out to dry
What I knew I shouldn't read
How could you love somebody so much
Knowing they've chosen to leave?

[Pre-Chorus]
She said, I miss what we were, I want what we had
Your silence the cruelest reply

[Chorus]
Don't take your love away
Don't take your love away
Don't take your love away

[Bridge]
Wouldn't it be easier in black and white?
I'm reading this too close to home
Well I've got some letters and a box of my own
Saved here for all these years
I've kept them for all these years

[Pre-Chorus]
The day's getting lonely, the sun's setting late
And now even your keys at the door
Well they never sounded this way before

[Chorus]
Don't take your love away
Don't take your love away
Don't take your love away
Don't take your love
