The Love You Save - Tracy Nelson

People, I’ve been misled

And I’ve been afraid

I’ve been kicked in the head

And left for dead

I’ve been abused

And I’ve been accused

I’ve 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

And find out what’s wrong

Get it right

Or just leave love alone

Because the love

You save today

May very well

Be your own

I’ve been pushed around

I’ve been lost and found

I’ve been given 'til sundown

To get out of town

I’ve been taken outside

And I’ve been brutalized

And I’ve 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

And find out what’s wrong

Get it right

Or please leave love alone

Because the love

You save today

May very well

Be your own
