I'm talking to all the lovers in the house tonight
|
Now listen, you know I want you to find out what's wrong
|
And get it right, or you should leave love alone
|
Because the love you save, it might be your own
|
|
People, I've been misled and I've been afraid
|
I've been hit in the head, ohh, and left for dead
|
I've been abused, woah and I've been accused
|
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, find out what's wrong
|
Get it right or leave love alone
|
Because the love you save today
|
May very well be your own
|
|
I've been pushed around, oh yeah, and I've been lost and found
|
Given the sundown to get out of town
|
I've been taken outside, oh and I've been brutalized
|
I had to always be the one to smile and apologize
|
|
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, find out what's wrong
|
Get it right or leave love alone
|
Because the love you save today
|
Might very well be your own
|
