(Stop) The Love You Save
Stop!
You better save it!
Stop stop stop!
You better save it!
When we played tag in grade school
You wanted to be "it"
But chasing boys was justified
You crossed your heart;
You quit
When we grew up you traded
Your promise for my ring
Now just like back in grade school
You're doing the same old thing
Stop!
The love you save may be your own
Darlin' take it slow
Or someday you'll be all alone
You better stop!
the love you save may be your own
Darlin' look both ways before you cross me
You're headed for a danger zone
I'm the one who loves ya!
I'm the one you need!
Those other guys will put you down
and soon they may succeed!
They'll ruin your reputation!
They'll label you a flirt!
The way they talk about you
Theyll turn your name to dirt!
Isaac said he kissed you
Beneath the apple tree
When Ben held your hand
He felt electricity
When Alexander called you
You said he rang the chime
But Christopher discovered
You're way ahead of your time
Stop!
The love you save may be your own
Darlin' take it slow
Or someday you'll be all alone
You better stop!
the love you save may be your own
Darlin' look both ways before you cross me
You're headed for a danger zone
You better save it!
Stop stop stop!
You better save it!
When we played tag in grade school
You wanted to be "it"
But chasing boys was justified
You crossed your heart;
You quit
When we grew up you traded
Your promise for my ring
Now just like back in grade school
You're doing the same old thing
Stop!
The love you save may be your own
Darlin' take it slow
Or someday you'll be all alone
You better stop!
the love you save may be your own
Darlin' look both ways before you cross me
You're headed for a danger zone
I'm the one who loves ya!
I'm the one you need!
Those other guys will put you down
and soon they may succeed!
They'll ruin your reputation!
They'll label you a flirt!
The way they talk about you
Theyll turn your name to dirt!
Isaac said he kissed you
Beneath the apple tree
When Ben held your hand
He felt electricity
When Alexander called you
You said he rang the chime
But Christopher discovered
You're way ahead of your time
Stop!
The love you save may be your own
Darlin' take it slow
Or someday you'll be all alone
You better stop!
the love you save may be your own
Darlin' look both ways before you cross me
You're headed for a danger zone
