Would you take the wings from a bird Knowing he can't fly Would you take the bottle from a little bitty baby And you know he's gonna cry Would you take the fish out of the water knowing Knowing the little fella's gonna die Would you take a cane from a blind man And you know he ain’t got no eyes Oh baby can you see, oh my darling That's what happened one day when you took your love from me
I’ve been loving you too long baby You’ve almost become a part of me Here’s another thing I’m a prisoner of your love baby But it’s a funny thing I don’t want you to set me free Would you take the sail from the ship And you know it ain’t gonna move Would you take all the pieces from a melody And just let it lose its groove Oh baby can’t you see, oh my darling that’s what happened When you took your love away from me
One day you took your love from me I lost the will to live The day you took your love from me You knocked me down on my knees
