I'll just take it out in love

I gave you love when you were lonely
I gave you strenght when times were bad
I've been a daddy to your children
I've dried your tears when you were sad

But darling you don't need to thank me
Having you is thanks enough
And if there's anything you owe me
Darling I'll just take it out in love

[ guitar ]
I've been your friend when you were troubled
I've stood by you when things went wrong
And I've picked up each time you stumbled
When you were weak I was strong

But darling you don't need to thank me...
Darling I'll just take it out in love
