"Don't Throw Our Love Away" lyrics - ORLEANS

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.
I wish I didn't have to go but I'll be back before
You know I'm gone -
I won't be long.
But you've been getting so upset, saying things
You might regret.
Well, I think that you should know by now that I won't
Do you wrong.
Don't throw our love away,
Don't throw our love away.
Can't you see it's just not right?
Lately all we do at night
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.
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 you try
To understand?
Your head is full of jealous thought and there's no
Reason why.
Don't throw our love away (Baby, don't you do it)
Don't throw our love away
Lately all we do at night
After you turn out the light
Is to scream and holler, fuss and fight
And I just can't get near you anymore.
Let's forget those angry words
I wanna leave on better terms
Darling 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
Can't you see it's jut 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 our love away
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 our love away.
