[Verse 1]
The sky was dark this morning
When I raised my head
I stood at the window, darkness was my bane
Suddenly, a sunbeam arch
Thrilled me to my weary heart
It was the prettiest thing I'd ever seen

[Chorus]
I knew I had to keep my love
Keep my love alive
Keep my love, keep my love alive

[Verse 2]
Oh baby, I want you to roll me
Hold me in your love
No more habits, promises and jive
Ever since I was a baby girl
Wanted one thing most in this world
It was to keep my love, keep my love alive

[Chorus]
Yeah, got to keep my love
Keep my love alive
Keep my love, keep it alive
[Post-Chorus]
Well, oh, I know, I know I gotta keep my love

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 3]
You're up there under the spotlight
Your silver trophy shines
With all you got, my lord, you must get high
You need a whole lot more than money
You need more than to survive

[Chorus]
You gotta keep your love, now
Keep your love alive
Ooh, you better keep your love, now
Keep your love alive

[Outro]
Ooh, keep your love
Keep your love
Keep your love alive
Come on, keep your love, now
Keep your love alive, yeah yeah
Keep your love, now
Keep it alive, alive
[Instrumental Outro]
