Don't Take Your Love From Me
The Three Suns Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tear a star from out the sky
(And the sky feels blue)
Tear a petal from a rose
(And the rose weeps, too)

Take your heart away from mine
And mine will surely break
(My life is yours to make)
(So, please, keep the spark away)

Would you take the wings from birds
(So that they can't fly?)
Would you take the ocean's roar
(And leave just a sigh?)

Oh, this your heart won't let you do
(This is what I beg of you)
Don't take your love from me

(Would you take the wings from birds)
(So that they can't fly?)
(Would you take the ocean's roar)
(And leave just a sigh?)

Oh, this your heart won't let you do




This is what I beg of you
Don't take your love from me

Overall Meaning

The Three Suns's song "Don't Take Your Love From Me" is a heartfelt plea from a lover to keep their love intact. The song starts with a metaphor of tearing a star from the sky, which indicates that even though it may seem like something small, it has a significant impact. This metaphor is amplified by tearing a petal from a rose, which causes it to weep. The message here is that even the slightest removal or neglect of love in a relationship can have damaging consequences.


The song then addresses the lover, begging them not to take their heart away from the singer's, as it will surely break. The singer gives up their life to the lover, and requests that they don't take the spark away, indicating the passion and intensity in the relationship. The lyrics then ask if the lover would take the wings from birds or the ocean's roar, emphasizing the impossibility of living without love, as it's integral to the natural world.


The chorus repeats the question to not take the love away, with additional emphasis on the impossibility of doing so, and ultimately begging the lover to continue to cherish the relationship. The song concludes with the original question of taking the wings from birds and the ocean's roar, as a final plea to keep the love alive, demonstrating its importance in a poetic and meaningful way.
