| I’m a man of reason, I believe in what is fair
|
| I’ve loved you through the seasons
|
| And when you needed me, I was always there
|
| Well, I wish I didn’t have to go
|
| But I’ll be back before you know I’m gone
|
| It won’t be long
|
| But you’ve been getting so upset
|
| Saying things you might regret
|
| Well, I think you should know by now that I won’t do you wrong
|
| Don’t throw our love away
|
| Don’t throw our love away, no, no
|
| Can’t you see it’s just not right?
|
| Lately all we do at night
|
| Is yell and argue, fuss and fight
|
| And I just can’t get near you anymore
|
| You better listen to me, I think it’s time we got it straight
|
| If you don’t stop abusing me, pretty soon it’s gonna be too late
|
| Yeah, yeah
|
| We’ve been happy all these years
|
| Just imagine all the tears we’d cry if we said goodbye
|
| I’ve always been a faithful man
|
| Can’t you try to understand?
|
| Your head is full of jealous thoughts and there’s no reason why
|
| So don’t throw our love away (Baby, don’t you do it)
|
| Don’t throw our love away (Baby, listen to me)
|
| No, don’t
|
| Lately all we do at night
|
| After you turn out the light
|
| Is scream and holler, fuss and fight
|
| And I just can’t get near you anymore
|
| Don’t throw our love away (Don't throw our love away)
|
| Let’s forget these angry words
|
| I want to leave on better terms
|
| Darlin', let’s renew our love
|
| We’re running out of time
|
| So don’t throw our love away (Baby, don’t you do it)
|
| Don’t throw our love away (Baby, listen to me)
|
| No, no
|
| Can’t you see it’s just not right
|
| To waste another precious night?
|
| I just want to hold you tight
|
| And make you smile the way you did before
|
| Don’t throw our love away (Baby, don’t you do it)
|
| Don’t throw it all away now, baby
|
| Don’t throw our love away (Baby, listen to me)
|
| Oh no
|
| It’s not easy to erase
|
| The memory of a warm embrace
|
| That tender look is on your face
|
| And you know you can’t hide it anymore
|
| Don’t throw our love away (Baby, don’t you do it)
|
| Don’t throw it all away now, baby
|
| Don’t throw our love away, yeah, yeah |
