take your love

you go round and round and round and round

you go round

but he lets you down and down and down and down

he let's you down

everybody knows your business in this town

'cos you can't help it

no

you can't help it

and he'll tell ya

tell ya

tell ya

tell ya what you want

but you've been fakin'

fakin'

fakin' it more than once

and you keep callin'

callin' me

every time he's gone

like you can't help it

you can't help it

he don't see what i see

and he don't know what you need

he's gon' know when i take your love away

he only loves you part-time

sure that you cry on his mind

waiting for me to take your love away

and every piece that he breaks

is another piece that i take

until he's made that last mistake

he don't think that you'll leave

and he don't know about me

well he's gon' know when i take your love away

i'll take your love away

round and round and round and round

you go round

but he lets you down and down and down and down

he let's you down

and you keep callin'

callin' me

every time he's gone

like you can't help it

you can't help it

he don't see what i see

and he don't know what you need

he's gon' know when i take your love away

he only loves you part-time

sure that you cry on his mind

waiting for me to take your love away

and every piece that he breaks

is another piece that i take

until he's made that last mistake

he don't think that you'll leave

no

he don't know about me

well he's gon' know when i take your love away

i'll take your love away

when i take your love away

all i know is when we're on our own

then you drink and it's over

back to him when you're sober

so you stay thinkin' he might change

but i know that he won't

'cos i know that he don't

he don't see what i see

and he don't know what you need

he's gon' know when i take your love away

he don't think that you'll leave

no

he don't know about me

well he's gon' know when i take your love away

i take your love away
