If Love Takes You Away

(album: Lefty - 1988)

Time's on your hands, on your hands
But you never had so much to do.
She's got your heart, got your heart
She'll never give it back to you.
You know love takes time,
But it's well worth the wait.
Tell her today, boy, tomorrow's way too late.

If Love Takes You Away,
It can take you where you want to go.
If Love Takes You Away,
Let it take you where you'll never go.

Wait for tonight, for tonight,
Tonight is always on its way.
Talk with a beat, with a beat,
You never had so much to say.
Put your heart down as a bet,
Winner gets a kiss.
If you're playing the first time,
You can't miss.

If Love Takes You Away,
It can take you where you want to go.
If Love Takes You Away...
(Love takes you away, away)

It's all in the way, all in the way,
All in the way you show,
You're not afraid to climb,
'Cause it may be the first time,
Yes, it may be the last time,
You never really know.

If Love Takes You Away,
It can take you where you want to go.
If Love Takes You Away,
(Love'll take you, it'll take you)
If Love Takes You Away,
(Oh, love takes you away, away)
If Love Takes You Away,
(Oh, Love Takes You Away, away)
