Keep On Lovin’ Me Honey Songtext
von Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell

Keep on lovin′ me honey, keep on lovin' me true
Baby, I′m gonna love you no matter what you do
Just so long as I can have it all, nothin' but you

So don't you take your love
Don′t take it away from me
′Cause I would stop right where I stand
I've just been afraid of a man

Don′t you take your love
Don't take it away from me
′Cause if you leave you might as well
Take the air I breathe

Keep on lovin' me honey, don′t you go nowhere
Don't you know I'm satisfied with your tender care?
And I get my inspiration, darlin′, just knowin′ you're there

So don′t you take your love
Don't take it away from me
′Cause like a leaf out on a tree
You've become a part of me


Don′t you take your love
Don't take it away from me
'Cause if you leave you might as well
Take the air I breathe

Would you take the heavens out of the sky
Imagine what the world would be like
If the rivers ran dry

Oh, Tammi
What good am I without you
I can′t do without you, darlin′
Like a sea without a shore
Kicking forever more

Keep on lovin' me honey, don′t you change your mind
Sugar, I can't bear the thought of ever leavin′ you behind
No matter what I do, another you, I'll never find

So don′t you take your love
Don't take it away from me
'Cause I would stop right where I stand
I′ve been afraid of a man

Don′t you take your love
Don't take it away from me
′Cause if you leave you might as well
Take the air I breathe


If you leave you might as well
Take the air I breathe
Don't you take your love
Don′t take it away from me

'Cause I need your love
I need it so desperately
Don′t you take your love
Don't take it away from me
