The Jacksons The Love You Save lyrics

Stop! Na na na! You'd better save it
Stop, stop, stop! You'd better save it

When we played tag in grade school
You wanted to be it
But chasing boys was just a fad
You crossed your heart you'd quit

When we grew up you traded
Your promise for my ring
Now just like back to grade school
You're doing the same old thing

Stop the love you save may be your own
Darling, take it slow or some day you'll be all alone
You'd better stop the love you save may be your own
Darling, look both ways before you cross me
You're headed for the danger zone

I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one you need
Those other guys will put you down
As soon as they succeed

They'll ruin your reputation
They'll label you a flirt
The way they talk about you
They'll turn your name to dirt, oh

Isaac said he kissed you
Beneath the apple tree
When Benjie held your hand
He felt electricity

When Alexander called you
He said he rang your chimes
Christopher discovered
You're way ahead of your time

Stop the love you save may be your own
Darling, take it slow or some day you'll be all alone
You'd better stop the love you save may be your own

Darling, look both ways before you cross me
You're headed for the danger zone

Slow down
Slow down
Slow down

S is for, 'Save it'
T is for, 'Take it slow'
O is for, 'Oh, no!'
P is for, 'Please, please, don't go!'

The love you save may be your own
Some day you may be all alone
Stop it, save it, girl
Or some day you'll be all alone

You'd better stop the love you save may be your own
Please, please
Or some day, some day baby
You'll be all alone

I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one you need
Those other guys will put you down
As soon as they succeed

Stop the love you save may be your own
You'd better stop it, stop it, stop it girl
Or some day you'll be all alone

Stop the love you save may be your own
Don't you know, don't you know
Or some day baby you'll be all alone

Those other guys will put you down
As soon as they succeed

Stop the love you save may be your own
