[Verse 1]
I saw the sunset in your eyes as I pushed you down
Never called you after dinner, why the long wait
Why the long good-bye
Why the long explanation
You left, but you can't take it away

[Chorus]
No you can't take it away, take it away
No matter what you choose to say
You know my heart still beats the same
No you can't take it away, take it away

[Verse 2]
There's a sweatshop in your mind, it's a known truth
You have a known disposition, why the long denial
Did I catch your eye
Did I catch your condemnation
You left, but you can't take it away

[Chorus]
No you can't take it away, take it away
No matter what you choose to say
You know my heart still beats the same
No you can't take it away, take it away
