don't leave me this way

i'm sick and tired and lonely

and sitting in my room

staring at the shadows

blowing smoke rings at the moon

every night i try

every night i cry

tryin' to work out why

i just wanna know

got to know

why you keep on pushing me

baby

you love me when you want

and take me when you need

whatever you say to me

baby

make my poor heart bleed

now i don't wanna win

but

i don't wanna lose

i don't wanna be alone no more

no more

no more

i just wanna give you love

i just gotta give you love

but you keep on giving love

you give another man your love

ooh baby

don't you leave me this way

don't you leave me

i never wanna hurt you

don't wanna tie you down

but every time i take a look in the mirror

i can see the heartache hanging 'round

i'm going down to the ground

why you always wanna bring me down?

baby

baby

why do you always bring me down?

'cause you keep on giving love

you give another man your love

baby

baby

don't you leave me this way

don't you leave me

baby

baby

baby

my heart is aching

my heart is breaking for you

and i can't take it anymore

no more

no more

i'm sick and tired and lonely

nothing left to say

just thinking 'bout you

baby

takes all my night and day

all my nights

all my days

ooh

baby

babe

you take my breath away

'cause you keep on giving love

you give another man your love

baby

baby

baby

don't you leave me this way

i can't stop my love from falling down

i wanna love you in the morning

wanna love you in the evening time

don't you leave me

baby

don't you ever leave me

baby

don't you leave me

baby

no

don't leave me

baby
