Don't take my love away

It's the only thing I've got.

Take this throat instead,

Coz it isn't worth a lot.



And I'll write it in the sand,

Just so you understand

That the ground that I walk on

Won't be here when you're gone,

And I'll fall into a hole

Failing without you, No matter what you do.

(Repeat)



Minutes to Midnight

The stars are out, the feeling's right.

Minutes to happiness

To you, my truth I must confess.

(Repeat)



Don't take my love away

It's the only thing I've got.

Take this throat instead,

Coz it isn't worth a lot.



And I'll write it in the sand,

Just so you understand

That the ground that I walk on

Won't be here when you're gone,

And I'll fall into a hole

Failing without you, No matter what you do.
