The Love You Save May Be Your Own - Etta James

作词：Joe Tex

作曲：Joe Tex

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
