don't throw it all away lyrics

(originally by andy gibbs)

Maybe I don't wanna know the reason why
But lately you don't talk to me
And baby I can't see me in your eyes

I hold you near but you're so far away
And it's losing you I can't believe
To watch you leave and let this feeling die

You alone are the living thing that keeps me alive
And tomorrow if I am here without your love you know I can't survive
Only my love can raise you high above it all

Chorus 4x
Don't throw it all away our love (our love)
Don't throw it all away our love

Don't throw it all away (2x)

We can take the darkness and make it full of light
Let your love flow back to me
How can you leave and let this feeling die

This happy room will be a lonely place when you are gone
And I won't even have your shoulders for the crying on
No other man's love could be as true, I'm beggin you

Chorus

You alone are the living thing that keeps me alive
And tomorrow if I am here without you love you know I can't survive
Only my love can raise you high above it all

(so high...above it all)
Don't throw it all away our love (our love)
Don't throw it all away our love
(so high...above it all)
Don't throw it all away our love (our love)
Don't throw it all away our love

(2x to fade)
Don't throw it all away our love (our love)
Don't throw it all away our love
