Well ya tell me that you're leavin'
You tell me that we're through
But you still want some of my lovin'
Well, darlin', I've got news for you
Don't you put your arms around me
You can feel my body shake
Don't ask me for none of my lovin'
Not tonight, I have a heartache
Not tonight, I have a heartache
Not tonight, I feel so blue
Not tonight, my poor heart is breaking
And it's all because of you
Well, I guess I'd better be goin'
I believe I'll be on my way
Don't kiss me goodbye
'Cause I'll start to cry
And please don't ask me to stay
And don't you put your arms around me
You can feel my body shake
Don't ask me for none of my lovin'
Not tonight, I have a heartache
Not tonight, I have a heartache
