He would sacrifice for you Just to make your dreams come true Only for you (inaudible) Overworked, he'd sweat for you He felt sick, broke in two You held the keys to set him free Chains of love to misery Everyday for you he'd pray But you never came to say He wasn't your slave He wasn't your slave Love took him to his grave For you he slaved Material gain was not his thing But he worked three jobs just to bring You three diamond rings But for you it wasn't enough He turned crook and life turned rough From bad to worse Then they hauled him off to jail Locked him away in a lonely cell Without his love, he did his time Right there with you on his mind He wasn't your slave He wasn't your slave Love took him to his grave For you he slaved Dream on Only for you Then they hauled him off to jail Locked him away in a lonely cell Without his love, he did his time Right there with you on his mind, yeah He wasn't your slave He wasn't your slave Love took him to his grave For you he slaved And if I had it to do then All over again I'd take him in my arms And love him like a friend I tried We tried And there love died Since he's been gone For his love I pray I ain't to proud to say For his love I've slaved Since he's been gone For his love I pray I ain't too proud to say For his love I've slaved Since he's been gone For his love I've slaved
