Love Gives, Love Takes Away

William Weatherspoon, Stephen Bowden, James Dean

[Intro]
Mmm mmm

[Verse 1]
See the teardrops as they fall from my eyes
Oh, see the man cry (See the man cry)

[Chorus]
'Cause I know, I know
That love gives, and love takes away
Said a heart full of love can be so empty today

[Verse 1]
Listen, every man he wants to be
Thought of as strong
But he needs the love, just to help him, help him along
I said, sometimes he may stumble
But always a man who stand
If he has a love of his own, give him a helping hand

[Pre-Chorus]
Listen, but if his love goes away, oh (If your love goes away)
He’ll learn what I did on that very day (Hе'll find out it goes away)

[Chorus]
He'll know that love givеs, and love takes away
Said a heart full of love can be so empty today
Listen, when pain fills your heart
Where once there was joy
Then a full-grown man can be a small, crying boy

[Verse 2]
Listen, once love showed me sunshine
And guided my way
To the girl that I needed, you know I found her one happy day
Then just for a moment, love made me feel good
Then I stood tall and smiling, just the way a big man should

[Pre-Chorus]
Listen, but one day I found that my girl had gone, oh baby (I found out she had gone)
And now my heart is sadder than the words that tell this song

[Chorus]
It’s saying that love gives, oh yeah, and love takes away
A heart full of love can be so empty today
Said when pain fills your heart
Where once there was joy
Then a full-grown man can be a small, crying boy

[Verse 3]
Listen, now all I do is wonder
I'm hoping for the day
That love will give me one more chance to come on back my way

[Pre-Chorus]
And now, all I do is wait, oh yeah (All I do is wait)
Hoping love will find me and praying not too late

[Chorus]
And knowing that love gives, it gives, it gives, yes it does (Love takes away)
A heart full of love can be so empty today
Said when pain (Pain fills your heart)
Oh, baby (Where once there was joy)
Then a full-grown man can be a small, crying boy

[Outro]
Love gave me joy (Love gives)
And it took it away (Love takes away)
Love gave me sunshine, baby
And it darkened all of my days
And I know that love ...
