Emmylou Harris - They'll Never Take His Love From Me lyrics

(leon payne) If today the sun should set on all my hopes and cares There is one whose smiling face the gods would see 'cause he'll walk along beside me up those golden stairs Oh, they'll never take his love from me Well, i thought i'd make him happy if i stepped aside But i knew his love would never set me free And even on the day he took another to be his bride I said they'll never take his love from me I'm so thankful for each golden hour of happiness That we shared together in the used to be Someone else's arms may hold him now in fond caress But they'll never, never take his love from me What a fool i was to go break the trust he gave And to see his love turn into sympathy It's the one regret i'll carry with me to my grave Oh, they'll never, ever take his love from me
