The love you save may be your own

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
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
