I'm talking to all the lovers in the house tonight   Now listen, you know I want you to find out what's wrong   And get it right, or you should leave love alone   Because the love you save, it might be your own      People, I've been misled and I've been afraid   I've been hit in the head, ohh, and left for dead   I've been abused, woah and I've been accused   Been refused a piece of bread      But I ain't never in my life before   Seen so many love affairs go wrong as I do today      I want you to stop, find out what's wrong   Get it right or leave love alone   Because the love you save today   May very well be your own      I've been pushed around, oh yeah, and I've been lost and found   Given the sundown to get out of town   I've been taken outside, oh and I've been brutalized   I had to always be the one to smile and apologize      But I ain't never in my life before   Seen so many love affairs go wrong as I do today      I want you to stop, find out what's wrong   Get it right or leave love alone   Because the love you save today   Might very well be your own
