Song Lyrics

"You Can t Take What You Don t Have You Don t Have Me"

by White Heart
Album: Inside

Shaun, you bring any slippers - dancing slippers'

Strip me clean, chain my hands and take my land,
Cut my hair, try to shut my mouth, I'll still speak out,
Tie me up, close my eyes, you can hypnotise,
You can tear me apart but you'll never touch my heart,
'Cause you can't take what you don't have.

Hear the whispered warnings down the corridor of time,
Crack the whip, pull the chains, the story will unwind,
See the drawn out faces, live the history,
Look deep into their eyes, this is what you'll read...

Strip me clean, chain my hands and take my land,
Cut my hair, try to shut my mouth, I'll still speak out,
Tie me up and close my eyes, you can hypnotise,
Ah, you can tear me apart but you'll never touch my heart,
'Cause you can't take what you don't have, (oh)
You can't take what you don't have, (oh, oh)
You can't take what you don't have,
No, you don't have me.

Here come the government, knocking at my door,
They've tried to take it all, now they're back for more,
I know what they're after but there's nothing they can do,
'Cause the heart and the soul of the ages is something I won't lose.

Strip me clean, chain my hands and take my land,
Cut my hair, try to shut my mouth, I'll still speak out,
Tie me up, close my eyes, you can even hypnotise,
You can tear me apart but you'll never touch my heart,
'Cause you can't take what you don't have, (oh)
You can't take what you don't have, (oh, oh)
You can't take what you don't have, (oh)
You can't take what you don't have,
You don't have me.

Ooh, strip me clean, chain my hands,
Cut my hair, try to shut my mouth,
Tie me up, close my eyes,
You can tear me apart but you'll never touch my heart,
You can't take what you don't have, (oh)
You can't take what you don't have, (no you don't have me)
You can't take what you don't have, (no, no, no, no)
You can't take what you don't have, (no)
You can't take what you don't have, (no you won't take, no you won't take)
You can't take what you don't have.
