Love Me Or Leave Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hey baby, won't you love me or leave me
Or let me be lonely
You won't believe me, but I love you only
I'd rather be lonely than be happy with somebody else
You might find the night time
The right time for hugging and kissing
But night time is my time
For just reminiscing
Regretting instead of forgetting
With somebody else
There'll be no one unless that someone is you
I intend to be independently blue
I want your love
But I don't want to borrow
To have it today
And to give back tomorrow
For my love is your love
And no love for nobody else
Love me or leave me and let me be lonely
You won't believe me but I love you only
I'd rather be lonely than happy with somebody else
You might find the night time
The right time for hugging and kissing
But night time is my time
For just reminiscing
Regretting instead of forgetting
With somebody else
There'll be no one unless that someone is you
I intend to be independently blue
I want your love
But I don't want to borrow
To have it today
And to give back tomorrow
Cause my love is your love
Your love is my love
My love your love
Nobody else
