Avant - Don't Take Your Love Away Lyrics

After the hopin' and the prayin' and the wishin'
Girl, your right here in my face
I've never been the one to bite my tongue, no
But I have not one word to say

I'm mesmerized by your sexy eyes
And your soft and lovely skin
I want this fiasco to end
So baby, we can start all over again

Listen, I wanna be able
I wanna be able to love you
Oh, I, I wanna be able
And let me be the one to please you

Oh, I as sure as the sun shines all over the earth
You're one of Gods most precious works
See I'm a man and we make mistakes
But please, don't take your love away, oh I

Don't take your love away
Baby, don't take your love away from me
I need you girl
Don't take your love away
Don't take your love away
Don't take your love away
Baby, don't take your love away from me
I need you girl
Don't take your love away, baby

Momma said, "Don't put your hands in the cookie jar
She said, "Son, have control"
She said, "Everything that's sweet ain't good for you, no
That's what she said and everything that glitters ain't gold

And now that you're gone
I realize, yes, I do, I lost my soul
Preach and I don't wanna pass the torch
Baby, can you give me one more chance?

I wanna be able
Able to do everything I didn't do before for you, baby
I wanna be able
Listen, I wanna love you o-o-over again

And I hold myself together to stay strong
Baby, you've been gone too long
See, I'm a man and we make mistakes
So baby, baby, baby, don't take your love away

Don't take your love away
Baby, don't take your love away from me
I need you girl
Don't take your love away
Don't take your love away
Don't take your love away
Baby, don't take your love away from me
I need you girl

See, girl, I know that I hurt you so
With all of those girls that were in my world
And Stacey and Kim, damn all of them
Girl, I wanna give you everything that I can

I know you're tired of my game, tired of my lies
Baby, this time I promise it'll be alright
No longer will you be led astray
Baby, listen to the words I say

Don't take your love away
Baby, don't take your love away from me
I need you girl
Don't take your love away
Don't take your love away
Don't take your love away
Baby, don't take your love away from me
I need you girl
Don't take your love
