Throw It Away - Terri Lyne Carrington/Melanie Charles/Somi/Negah Santos

Composed by：Abbey Lincoln BMI

I think about the life I live

A figure made of clay

And think about the things I lost

The things I gave away

And when I'm in a certain mood

I search the house and look

One night I found these magic words

In a magic book

Throw it away

Throw it away

Give your love live your life

Each and every day

And keep your hand wide open

Let the sun shine through

'Cause you can never lose a thing

If it belongs to you

There's a hand to rock the cradle

And a hand to help us stand

With a gentle kind of motion

As it moves across the land

And the hand's unclenched and open

Gifts of life and love it brings

So keep your hand wide open

If you're needing anything

Throw it away

Throw it away

Give your love live your life

Each and every day

Keep your hands wide open

Let the sun shine through

You will never lose a thing

If it belongs to you

There's a natural obligation

To what we hold and claim

Possessing and belonging to

Acknowledging a name

So keep your hands wide open

If you need a love today

'Cause you can never lose a thing

If you throw it all away

Throw it away

Throw it away

Give your love

Give your love

Live your life

Live your life

Each and every day

And keep your hands wide open

Let the sun shine through

'Cause you can never lose a thing

If it belongs to you
