Exiled (From The Love I Know) – Eddy Grant

Oh…

Exiled from the love I know
Exiled from the love I know
Exiled from the love I know

Oh, even though I’m exiled
From the love I know
(Exiled from the love I know)
Oh, I’m a-living in the hope
One day we gonna love some more
(Exiled from the love I know)
Oh, even though I’m exiled
From the love I know
(Exiled from the love I know)
Well, I’m a-living in the hope
One day we gonna love some more
(Exiled from the love I know)

Baby, where did our love go wrong
You got me singing this old unhappy song
Don’t let’s quarrel, just let’s both sit down
See if we can finally work it out

And even though I’m exiled
From the love I know
(Exiled from the love I know)
Oh, I’m a-living in the hope
One day we gonna love some more
(Exiled from the love I know)
Even though I’m exiled
From the love I know
(Exiled from the love I know)
Oh, I’m a-living in the hope
One day we gonna love some more
(Exiled from the love I know)
Oh…

(Exiled from the love I know)
Oh…
(Exiled from the love I know)

Oh, we’ve walked down the streets
Of love in the sunshine
But now I know what it’s like
When the rains come tumbling down
I couldn’t bear to see
Our love and affection
Being washed away
Like the sands on the seashore

Oh, and even though I’m exiled
From the love I know
(Exiled from the love I know)
Well, I’m a-living in the hope
One day we gonna love some more
(Exiled from the love I know)
Oh, even though I’m exiled
From my home country
(Exiled from the love I know)
I am a-living in the hope
One day you’re gonna love again with me
(Exiled from the love I know)

Hey, hey, hey, hey
(Exiled from the love I know)
You got me, you got me
(Exiled from the love I know)
You got me from the love I know
(Exiled from the love I know)
Oh…

Oh, I’ve been tried as a traitor
I’ve been chased by a thousand dogs
Kidnapped and threatened with guns
And I’ve been sentenced to a life
Without your life

Oh, exiled from the love I know
Oh, exiled from the love I know
You got me, you got me
(Exiled from the love I know)
Exiled from the love I know

You got me, darling
You got me, honey
You got me, baby
From the love I know, oh…

You got me, you got me
You got me, you got me
Hey, baby
You got me, oh…
Exiled from the love I know
Oh, I love you, darling
Oh…
Oh-oh…
You got me

I called on the Lord above
And I asked Him to save our love
I now see where that trouble lies
Darling, I seen it good
Both of my troubled eyes

Even though I’m exiled
From the love I know
(Exiled from the love I know)
Oh, I’m a-living in the hope
One day we gonna love some more
(Exiled from the love I know)
Oh, even though I’m exiled
From the love I know
(Exiled from the love I know)
Well, I’m a-living in the hope
One day we gonna love some more
(Exiled from the love I know)
Hey!

We got to get down to serious business
We got to get down to serious business
We got to get down, we got to get down
We got to get down to serious business
Business, baby, business, baby
Business, baby

I don’t wanna be in exile
I said, I don’t wanna be in exile
I said, I don’t wanna be in exile
Not exiled from your love
Not exiled from your love
Not exiled, not exiled from your love
No more, darling
I wanna take you back home
I wanna take you back home
I wanna take you back home with me, darling…
