I met him one day
Didn't even know his name
Before I knew it
We were together
Nothing that could change
Suddenly the time flew by
What else could I do?
I held onto him tight
He held onto me too
But as he was pulled away
I prayed in my heart
And I said
"Take my best friends
Take my talent
Take everything I have
Take my fortune
Take my memories
I don't want them back
Take them for all they're worth
But please don't take my world."
As time went by
Things they changed
Our moments dwindled down
The time we spent all
Shot to hell
They tried to keep me
Away from him
My one and only love
They didn't understand what I might give up
Just to have one more chance
So I said
"Take my rights
Take my priviledges
Take me from your life
Kick me out
Abandon me
Don't let me have a life
Say what you want with your words
But please
Don't take my world."
It's the last day that we could be
Together anymore
We stood together
Arms around each other
Crying at the door
The rain poured down outside
He didn't want me to go
I squeezed him tightly
I kissed him one last time
And before I left I told him
"You are my love
You are my everything
You make me smile
I'll never forget you
I'll always remember us
And how we used to be
Anyone you meet tell them
Please don't take my world."
