Elvis Costello They`ll Never Take Her Lyrics

They`ll Never Take Her Lyrics

If today the sun should set on all my hopes and cares
There is one who`s smiling face the gods would see
For she`ll walk along beside me up the golden stairs
Oh, they`ll never, never take her love from me

What a fool I was to go and break the trust she gave
And see her love turn into sympathy
It`s the one regret I carry with me to my grave
Oh, they`ll never, never take her love from me

I`m so thankful for each golden hour of happiness
That we shared together in the used to be
Someone else`s arms may hold her now in fond caress
But, they`ll never, never take her love from me

I thought I would make her happy if I stepped aside
But I knew her love would never set me free
And even on the morning she became another`s bride
I said, "They`ll never, never take her love from me."
