Dont let them get the best
Of your heart leave the rest
Up to love and youll be takin care of

Many come to try to tear away your heart
Never carin for you from the very start
Still you wonder if this time could be real
Tryin to figure out if they came just to steal

Dont let them get the best
Of your heart leave the rest
Up to love and youll be takin care of

Time and time again youve listened to a smile
Never knowin whats behind it all the while
You give yourself away until love is gone
And dont consider that they might be doin harm

Dont let them get the best
Of your heart leave the rest
Up to love and youll be takin care of

Hey there, you let him wipe away that little tear
You tryin so hard to hold back what you really feel
Always look inside the people that your with
And never hang around those who can not give
