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



i knew i had to keep my love

keep my love alive

keep my love- keep my love alive



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



i want to keep my love- keep my love alive

keep my love- keep my love alive



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

you gotta keep your love

keep your love alive
