Don't take my love away
It's the only thing I've got
Take this throat instead,
Coz it isn't worth a lot

And I'll write it in the sand,
Just so you understand
That the ground that I walk on
Won't be here when you're gone,
And I'll fall into a hole
Failing without you, No matter what you do
(Repeat)

Minutes to Midnight
The stars are out, the feeling's right
Minutes to happiness
To you, my truth I must confess
(Repeat)

Don't take my love away
It's the only thing I've got
Take this throat instead,
Coz it isn't worth a lot

And I'll write it in the sand,
Just so you understand
That the ground that I walk on
Won't be here when you're gone,
And I'll fall into a hole
Failing without you, No matter what you do
