He would sacrifice for you
Just to make your dreams come true
Only for you
(inaudible)
Overworked, he'd sweat for you
He felt sick, broke in two
You held the keys to set him free
Chains of love to misery
Everyday for you he'd pray
But you never came to say
He wasn't your slave
He wasn't your slave
Love took him to his grave
For you he slaved
Material gain was not his thing
But he worked three jobs just to bring
You three diamond rings
But for you it wasn't enough
He turned crook and life turned rough
From bad to worse
Then they hauled him off to jail
Locked him away in a lonely cell
Without his love, he did his time
Right there with you on his mind
He wasn't your slave
He wasn't your slave
Love took him to his grave
For you he slaved
Dream on
Only for you
Then they hauled him off to jail
Locked him away in a lonely cell
Without his love, he did his time
Right there with you on his mind, yeah
He wasn't your slave
He wasn't your slave
Love took him to his grave
For you he slaved
And if I had it to do then
All over again
I'd take him in my arms
And love him like a friend
I tried
We tried
And there love died
Since he's been gone
For his love I pray
I ain't to proud to say
For his love I've slaved
Since he's been gone
For his love I pray
I ain't too proud to say
For his love I've slaved
Since he's been gone
For his love I've slaved
