You gave me sweet things and flowers
You gave me a sky so blue
You gave me a rock to lean on
And I gave myself to you
We wandered through each other's secrets
We traded an honored word
We shared a solemn promise
But like the raven's cry, it must be heard
Please don't take away your love, dear
One mistake is not a crime
Let's start again, my love is yours, dear
Your love is mine
One more time
You tell me a cold wind's a-comin'
A chill that turns a heart to stone
And your eyes say it's time to move on
Down a road you'd rather walk alone
Young pride is a raging river
It could fell the tallest tree
But some need the wings of forgiveness
Can tame the stormy seas
Please don't take away your love, dear
One mistake is not a crime
Let's start again, my love is yours, dear
Your love is mine
One more time, one more time
They say that nothing is forever
Like the tide that comes in but doesn't stay
But our journey has taken up a lifetime
And what you give, you just can't take away
I can't take away my love, dear
One mistake is not a crime
Let's start again, my love is yours, dear
Your love is mine
One more time
