Steal Your Love Lyrics

Do they lay down the law and lock up your heart?
Gonna have to steal your love
Some laws should be broken from the start
Gonna have to steal your love

You ain't about to give it up for no one
Gonna have to steal your love
I don't need a knife, I don't need a gun
I know how to steal your love

I don't want your drugs, I don't want your money
I just wanna steal your love
I want you to squeeze me and call me honey
I just wanna steal your love

Give me your strong hand, go away with me
I won't have to steal your love
Come on, let me kiss you and set you free
I won't have to steal your love
I won't have to steal your love
I won't have to steal your love

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I did steal her love, but she wouldn't let me keep it. It didn't last, she took it away from me

All these years later, even though it did not last, I still remember how euphoric it felt to be loved by her.
