Don't Leave Me This Way Songtext
von David Coverdale

Mmmmm

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
