Don't kiss me, darling

I want you to hear the things I say

I loved you in my way

But you know I'm gonna leave you

The clock was always ticking

And your heart

Yes I know your heart is always on the run

I hate what I've become

But I'm still gonna leave you

And I don't think you should stay for the night

Baby you know that my flesh is weak

You know I simply

I cannot sleep without you

My heart has simply nowhere to go

Nothing to hold

Those tears you're crying

Time and time again you take me back in baby

You don't have to make it plain

This is not real love

Look at us dancing baby

Let's dance and show them all

(Dance and show them all)

How close we are

The lies have worked so far

So we go on deceiving

But darling don't you know the time

Baby, look at yourself, holding back the tide

Like you've got something else up your sleeve

That's why I've got to leave

And I don't think you should stay here tonight

(Baby don't you know that my flesh is weak, you know)

I simply I cannot sleep without you

But someday I'll have nothing to show

(Nothing to show)

(Nothing to show)

I've nothing to hold

Oh, baby, crying

All those simple things that won't come again

Oh do I have to make it plain

This is not real love

And I said this is not real love

Real love

Baby it don't glisten and shine the way it used to

This is not real love (real love)

Baby think of all the promises I made on the day that

I seduced you

Baby don't wait for me like some angel of tragedy

I have to set you free

Darling you should be long gone, oh long gone by now

You should be with someone, someone

Glisten and shine

You promised me

You've gotta face it woman, you ain't ever gonna

Change me

Where will I go, what do I know

About life without you

You promised me you'd never leave me, no

This is not real love
