You gave me a world so full of everything I need
You brought love into a lonely heart
And like the foal of roan you knocked the crops right out from me
You sure know how to tear the world apart

Take back the sun take back the stars
Take back the love that helps me in a whirl
With only half a dream I don't have none at all
So darling you can't take back the world
[ steel - dobro ]
The universe can't hold the love I'll always have for you
Cause you control the stars with all you do
I knew I'd only love you until my life ran out
But I don't think my world would end with you

Take back the sun take back the stars...
Oh oh oh darling you can't take back the world
