What started out as an infatuation When I got to know you some But you and I know there’s jealous people (that still) Hate the fact that we’re in love And I’ve tried my best to shrug it off, move along Coz I know you and I’ve got a love so strong They try to hold us back Won’t cut us some slack But I know in time they’ll see that
[chorus] They can’t take me away from my lady (from my lady) They can’t take me away from you (from you) They can’t take me away form my lady (from my lady) They can’t take me away from you (from you)
See I’m peepin all those players trippin (laughs) Coz they want a little of your time They should have heard and they should have listened When you told them you were mine (but still) They try to break the bond between you and me But you and I both know that can never be They keep goin on and on Won’t leave us alone But they can’t take my queen of her throne
[Chorus] They can’t take me away from my lady (from my lady) They can’t take me away from you (from you) They can’t take me away form my lady (from my lady) They can’t take me away from you (from you)
I don’t care what they say I’m gon love you anyway I don’t care what they do I’ll still be in love with you [x2]
