Don't Take Your Love from Me
Louis Prima And His Orchestra Lyrics

Tear a star from out the sky
If you remove something from its natural place, the result could be unexpected and sorrowful

And the sky feels blue
The absence of something can change the entire feeling or atmosphere of an environment

Tear a petal from a rose
Just like how the beauty of a flower is a result of all its parts, taking away just one element can make the entire object or situation seem incomplete

And the rose weeps, too
The consequences of one's actions can affect more than just themselves; others in their life could be impacted as well

Take your heart away from mine
Emotional attachments are strong and can be very difficult to separate without causing harm

And mine will surely break
The fragility of human emotion can be overwhelming and destructive if handled carelessly

My life is yours to make
When two people are in a relationship, each individual's choices and actions can affect the other person's life heavily

So please keep the spark awake
It's important to work together to maintain the positive feelings and connection that brought two people together in the first place

Would you take the wings from birds
Taking away an innate ability that is necessary for survival and growth can lead to a sense of loss and hopelessness

So that they can't fly?
Without the ability to lift off the ground, they're limited in where they can go and what they can achieve

Would you take the ocean's roar
The power, majesty, and beauty of nature can provide a sense of awe and perspective that remind us of our place in the world

And leave just a sigh?
Taking away something that brings meaning, joy, or value to someone's life can leave them feeling empty and unfulfilled

All this, your heart won't let you do
The heart knows what is right and wrong, and it's hard to rid oneself of the responsibility one has toward another person's well-being

This is what I beg of you
Please do not take away the love and connection that holds us together

Don't take your love from me
Our love is what makes us feel connected, valued, and alive - losing that would be devastating

Don't take your love from me
Our love is what makes us feel connected, valued, and alive - losing that would be devastating
