DON'T THROW YOUR LOVE AWAY
The Searchers
(Jackson / Wisner)
- lyrics as recorded by The Searchers

Don't throw your love away, no, no, no, no
Don't throw your love away
For you might need it someday

Don't throw your dreams away, no, no, no, no
Keep them another day
For you might need them someday

Lovers of today just throw their dreams away
And play at love
They give their love away
To anyone who'll say "I love you"

Don't throw your love away, no, no, no, no
Don't throw your love away
For you might need it someday

Lovers of today just throw their dreams away
And play at love
They give their love away
To anyone who'll say "I love you"

Go out and have your fun
You better have your fun with anyone
But don't throw your love away

Don't throw your love away, no, no, no, no
Don't throw your love away
For you might need it someday

Don't throw your love away, no, no, no, no
Don't throw your love away, yeah
