Don't take away the music It's the only thing I've got It's my piece of the rock Ooh hoo, I knew you were always there You were my song (You were my song) How am I supposed to bear it? Now that you've gone (Would you separate the words?) Ooh, from a sweet sweet melody (Lady, would you take away?) The music from a symphony Don't take away the music It's the only thing I've got It's my piece of the rock Don't take away the music Everything else is gone Don't strip my world of it's song Every time you whispered low My heart would sing (My heart would sing) Now it's silent like the phone The phone that never rings, baby (Memories of love's refrain) Memories keep haunting me (What are we doing to the song we sang?) What happened to our sweet harmony? Don't take away the music It's the only thing I've got It's my piece of the rock Don't take away the music Everything else is gone Don't strip my world of it's song Don't take away the music, ooh ooh ooh Don't take away the music, ooh ooh ooh Don't take away the music, ooh ooh ooh Don't take away Since you're not here with me My whole life seems out of key Don't take away the music It's the only thing I've got It's my piece of the rock Don't take away the music Everything else is gone Don't strip my world of it's song
