I Threw It All Away
I once held her
In my arms
She said she would always stay
But I was cruel
And I treated her like a fool
I threw it all away
Once I had mountains
In the palm of my hand
And rivers to drink through everyday
But I must have been mad
I never knew what I had
Until I threw it all away
Love is all there is
That makes the world go round
Love as only love
Cant be denied
Not matter what you think about it
Just wont be able to do without it
Take a tip from one whos tried
So when you find someone
Who gives you all of her love
Take it to your heart dont
Let is stray
Cause one thing for certain
You will surely be hurting
If you throw it all away
If you throw it all away

I Threw It All Away
I once held her in my arms,
She said she would always stay.
But I was cruel,
I treated her like a fool,
I threw it all away.
Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand,
And rivers that ran through evry day.
I must have been mad,
I never knew what I had,
Until I threw it all away.
Love is all there is, it makes the world go round,
Love and only love, it cant be denied.
No matter what you think about it
You just wont be able to do without it.
Take a tip from one whos tried.
So if you find someone that gives you all of her love,
Take it to your heart, dont let it stray,
For one thing thats certain,
You will surely be a-hurtin,
If you throw it all away.

Baby Love
(brian holland/lamont dozier/edward holland, jr.)
Ooh baby love, my baby love
I need you, oh how I need you
But all you do is treat me bad
Break my heart and leave me sad
Tell me, what did I do wrong
To make you stay away so long
cause baby love, my baby love
Been missing ya, miss kissing ya
Instead of breaking up
Lets do some kissing and making up
Dont throw our love away
In my arms why dont you stay
Need ya, need ya
Baby love, ooh, baby love
Baby love, my baby love
Why must we seperate, my love
All of my whole life through
I never loved no one but you
Why you do me like you do
I get this need
Ooh, ooh, need to hold you
Once again, my love
Feel your warm embrace, my love
Dont throw our love away
Please dont do me this way
Not happy like I used to be
Loneliness has got the best of me
My love, my baby love
I need you, oh how I need you
Why you do me like you do
After Ive been true to you
So deep in love with you
Baby, baby, ooh til its hurtin me
til its hurtin me
Ooh, baby love
Dont throw our love away
Dont throw our love away

(Our Love) Don't Throw It All Away
Maybe I don't wanna know the reason why
But lately you don't talk to me
Darling I can't see me in your eyes
I hold you near but you're so far away
And it's losing you I can't believe
To watch you leave and let this feeling die
You alone are the living thing that keeps me alive
And tomorrow if I'm here without your love
You know I can't survive
Only my love can raise you high above it all
Don't throw it all away , our love , our love
Don't throw it all away , our love
Don't throw it all away , our love , our love
Don't throw it all away , our love
(break)
We can take the darkness and make if full of light
But let your love flow back to me
How can you leave and let this feeling die
This happy room will be a lonely place when you are gone
And I won't even have your shoulders for the crying on
No other women's love could be as true , I'm begging you
Don't throw it all away , our love , our love
Don't throw it all away , our love
Don't throw it all away , our love , our love
Don't throw it all away , our love
We changed the world we made it ours to hold
But dreams are made for those who really try
This losing you is real
But I still feel you here inside
Don't throw it all away , our love , our love
Don't throw it all away , our love
Don't throw it all away , our love , our love
Don't throw it all away , our love

I Dont Want To Throw Rice
She married the one I love today
When my back was turned she took him away
Now while theyre all outside, waiting to throw rice
What I want to throw will surely black her eyes
cause I dont want to throw rice
I want to throw rocks at her
She took the only love I had
No, I dont want to throw rice
I want to throw rocks at her
It would be a way to hurt her cause she hurt me so bad
Well I never stole nothin in my life
But if I get the chance Ill steal him from his wife
cause all is fair in love and war, maybe Im carryin this too far
But I feel like tying dynamite to her side of the car
No I dont want to throw rice
I want to throw rocks at her
She took the only love I had
No, I dont want to throw rice
I want to throw rocks at her
It would be a way to hurt her cause she hurt me so bad

Dont Throw It All Away
(g. benson/d. mindel)
Here we go
Breaking up what we have built
Leaving out all the things that we have felt
Where was i, where was I before you came
From the first time that I saw you
I thought
Maybe i
Maybe I did something wrong
How I tried
But the words wont fit the song
Found the door
But I could not find the key
From the first time that I saw you
I thought that you may be
So dont throw it all away
I dont wanna be the one whos gonna have to beg you stay
I dont wanna be the one to change your mind
One more time
Please stay
Dont throw it all away
Though it seems
That I just take it out on you
Dont you know
Only you can get me through
Found the door
Now I know that youre the key
From the first time that I saw you
I knew that you may be
So dont throw it all away
I dont wanna be the one whos gonna have to beg you stay
I dont wanna be the one to change your mind
One more time
Please stay
Dont throw it all away
Dont throw it all away
Please stay

Motor Of Love Love
I cant get over your love
No matter how hard life seems,
Theres a light in my dreams
Thanks to you.
My friends keep asking me why
Theres such a smile on my face,
Theres a home at my place,
Thanks to you.
I dont want anything from you,
Turn on your motor of love.
Motor of love, motor of love.
Heavenly father look down from above,
I cant get over your powerful
Motor of love.
I cant get over your love
No matter how lost I feel,
I know my love is real,
Thanks to you.
You simply reached out your hand
And touched me deep in my soul,
I came in out of the cold,
Thanks to you.
I wont steal anything from you,
You give me more than enough.
Motor of love, motor of love.
Heavenly father look down from above,
I cant get over your powerful
Motor of love.
There was a time
When I was down and counted out,
Well I remember I felt so bad
I nearly threw away,
Nearly threw away the keys.
Motor of love, motor of love.
Heavenly father look down from above,
Motor of love, motor of love.
Heavenly father look down from above,
I cant get over your powerful
Motor of love.

The Fool
You don't know me but I know who you are
Mind if I sit down
Do I look familiar if I don't well I should
I'm sure you've seen me around
I know you've probably heard my name
Though we've not been introduced
I'm the fool in love with the fool
Who's still in love with you
If you've got a minute I'll buy you a drink
I've got something to say
It might sound crazy but last night in his sleep
I heard him call out your name
This ain't the first time he's done it before
And it's hard to face the truth
I'm the fool in love with the fool
Who's still in love with you
I know love is a fragile thing
And I'm trying hard to make it last
But it ain't easy holding on to my dream
When he's holding on to the past
Just one more thing before I go
I'm not here to put you down
You don't love him and that's a fact
Girl I've seen you around
But you hold his heart in the palm of your hand
And it's breaking mine in two
'Cause I'm the fool in love with the fool
Who's still in love with you
I'm the fool in love with the fool
Who's still in love with you

Fool For Love
Have you heard the sound of disappointment
It tears at you
Why didnt I realise that I could be conned by you
Taken for a fool
But as the light go down
Theres no one left around
What will you do
Now youve hurt me
I wont let you stay
No matter what you say to me now
I wont let you stay
No matter what you say to me now
Hear what Im saying its not what Im thinking
My head is like a chain of thoughts
Twisted in vain
When will you ever learn
That its always the hard way
Now that were through
Ive nothing left to prove
To convince you
To convince you
I wont let you stay
No matter what you say to me now
I wont let you stay
No matter what you say to me now
I wont let you stay
No matter what you say to me now
You never cared what happened
Now youre the one whos laughing
Fool for love
Those rumours were true I was your fool
I wont let you stay
No matter what you say to me now
I wont let you stay
No matter what you say to me now

Throw It All Away
How could you
Just hurt me
And leave me
(leave me all alone)
How could you destroy my life
How could you throw it all away
What made you
Desert me and deceive me
Why did you just let me down
How could you throw it all away
How could you throw...
How could you throw it all away
Throw it all away
When I gave my all, baby
How could you throw it all away
And I gave my all
How could you throw
How could you throw it all away
Throw it all away
You destroyed my life, baby
How could you throw it all way
How could you
Just lead me
Into thinking
(thinking you would be there)
How could you destroy my heart
How could you throw it all away
I love you
Believe you
And I trusted you
(put all my trust in you)
How could you just let me down
How could you throw it all way
How could you throw
How could you throw it all away

Throw it all away
How could you just take it all
How could you throw it all away
Oh how could you throw
How could you throw it all away
Throw it all
Throw it all away
When I gave my love
How could you throw it all away
I love you girl
You love me so
Where did we go wrong
I know that i
Gave my all to you
But somehow that wasnt good enough
How could you throw it away
How could you throw it all away

How could you destroy my life baby
How could you throw it all away
How could you throw it all away

Poisoned Rose
The poisoned rose
That you gave to me
It left me half alive
And half in ecstasy
But if half of your love
Is all I can win
Give me just a fraction
But no more medicine
The poisoned rose
On a valentine card
That you take straight to the heart
That you call my junkyard
But if all I can do
Is save pieces of you
The piece of your mind
The piece of your heart
Didnt tear me apart
Like the poisoned rose
I received from you
I dont know
How we came to grow
Into this very sad affair
Everytime we do the decent thing
Somebody spikes the drink
And a single becomes a pair
The poisoned rose
That you wear at your best
That I keep pressed between the white sheets
Where you lie half undressed
I threw away my shirt and shoes
You looked and I dived in
Its just you and me now
cause I threw away the gin
I threw away your alibis
And all your worn-out clothes
I threw myself upon the floor
But I couldnt throw away
This poisoned rose
This poisoned rose
This poisoned rose

Whenever I Run
Ive seen that darkness on the edge of town
The sun come up and the rain fall down
And Ive been a fool, yeah Ive been around
And when the world got too much for me
I took off and left a memory
Thinking Id find something better for me somehow
Oh but now
Whenever I run
Instead of running into the blue
I follow my heart
And there in your arms
Is where I find the love I need
And the best is yet to come
Baby youre the one I run to
I used to quit when it got too tough
Throw in my cards when I was down on my luck
But baby you mean too much to me
So now
Whenever I run
Instead of running into the blue
I follow my heart
And there in your arms
Is where I find the love I need
And the best is yet to come
Baby youre the one I run to
I never could stay in one place too long
I never could stand that still
Ah but you changed so much in me
And now I know I will
Im gonna stay where the love is right
Im so tired of being a bird in flight
Good love takes work
Ah but thats alright
Thats alright
Whenever I run
Instead of running into the blue
I follow my heart
And there in your arms
Is where I find the love I need
And the best is yet to come
Youre the only one
Instead of running into the blue
I follow my heart
And there in your arms
Thats where I find the love I need
And the best is yet to come
Baby youre the one I run to
The one I run to

What Is This Thing Called Love?
What is this thing called love?
This funny thing called love?
Just who can solve its mystery?
Why should it make a fool of me?
I saw you there one wonderful day
You took my heart and threw it away
Thats why I ask the lord in heaven above
What is this thing called love?
I saw you there one wonderful day
You took my heart and threw it away
Thats why I ask the lord in heaven above
What is this thing called love?
Transcribed by todd peach
Following is another version with additional verses:
I was a hum-drum person
Leading a life apart
When love flew in through my window wide
And quickened my hum-drum heart
Love flew in thorugh my window
I was so happy then
But after love had stayed a little while
Love flew out again
What is this thing called love?
This funny thing called love?
Just who can solve its mystery?
Why should it make a fool of me?
I saw you there one wonderful day
You took my heart and threw it away
Thats why I ask the lawd in heaven above
What is this thing called love?
You gave me days of sunshine
You gave me nights of cheer
You made my life an enchanted dream
til somebody else came near
Somebody else came near you
I felt the winters chill
And now I sit and wonder night and day
Why I love you still?

Unabbreviated Love
How long will I last
Standing out here on my own
I wonder, did I move too fast
You know I hate slow dancing alone
I keep leading with my heart
You keep saying
That were worlds apart
That our love is so taboo
These empty arms
Wont last too long
Hope you appreciate
I need your unabbreviated love
And Ill stick like glue
Can I anticipate
I need your unabbreviated love
Now, thats how I feel
Im gonna be your lucky star
If you stop spinning your wheels
And sending out these false alarms
Why must love feel like a heart attack
You held me once and
You keep coming back
Oh boy you havent got a clue
Oh these empty arms
Wont last too long
Hope you appreciate
I need your unabbreviated love
And Ill stick like glue
Can I anticipate
I need your unabbreviated ...
Love is unavoidable
Love can put you back on track
As a matter of fact
Love makes you forget your troubles
A love like that
You dont throw back, no, no
I keep leading with my heart
You keep saying
That were worlds apart
That our love is so taboo
These empty arms
Wont last too long
Hope you appreciate
I need your unabbreviated love
And Ill stick like glue
Can I anticipate
I need your unabbreviated love

All I See Is You
(clive westlake / ben wiesman)
I tried so hard
All summer through
Not to think too much of you
But the more I try
The more I find
I just cant leave the past behind
Times that are happy
Are times that are few
And once I was happy
When I had you
But days have come and gone
Since you were here
Nights are twice as long
Without you near
Pictures on my mind
Stand out so clear
No matter where I am
Or what I do
My darling
All I see is you
Youre there in every dream
I ever dream
There at every place
Ive ever been
Everyday I find
Youre in my heart
And on my mind
I close my eyes
But Im not blind
I see you still
And when I throw my arms out wide
I find that youre not by my side
But one thing is for sure
Until I do
All I see is you
Everyday I find
Youre in my heart
And on my mind
I close my eyes
But Im not blind
I see you still, oh
I wont live again
til Im with you
Oh, darling
I wont love again
Unless its with you
So until the day
When you are back with me to stay
In every way
All I see is you

Act Of Faith
I tell you honestly,
Dont you go and throw your heart away
I know its so hard to do
Youve got to let go when you want to hold on
I know how much you miss him celebrate what you had
Dont cry about the things left unsaid
Itll do no good
You look for mercy and a meaning somewhere
You know that the hurting wont go
til you walk through the fire
Its gonna take an act of faith stand up and face the day
Its gonna take an act of faith, nobody can make you stay
Its gonna take an act of faith
Maybe love will find its way back into your life
Heres my heart my love is in it
Heres my heart my love is in it
Stand up, dont you fall
You just take good care of where you are
Youre thinking lifes through with you
Thats not what hed want or what you should do
I know you loved him baby celebrate who he was
I know you know youve got to go on and live your life
Go down to the river of the spirit that runs through you
And lay yourself down in the healing waters
Its gonna take an act of faith stand up and face the day
Its gonna take an act of faith, nobody can make you stay
Its gonna take an act of faith
Maybe love will find its way back into your life
Love is a healer
There is no purpose served in holding on
Love is a healer
There is no understanding why
Love is a healer
There is no sin in you that brought this to your door
My love, it just is
Heres my heart my love is in it
Heres my heart my love is in it
