Baby don't go
Baby don't go
Baby don't go
Don't leave me, leave me, leave me
Don't go, don't go
Don't leave me, leave me, leave me
I love you so
Don't leave me, leave me, leave me
Don't go, don't go
Don't leave me, leave me, leave me
I love you so
I've been hurt before, stay around for a while
Let's work it out, let's try to make it happen
Don't do the things that other guys did to hurt me
They make me cry, break my heart, oh why?
I know you're a busy man
But you don't understand, how it feels to be alone
When times get hard and I wanna feel
Your sweet and tender touch
That's all I'm askin' baby
'Cause I never asked for much, oh
Don't leave me, leave me, leave me
Don't go, don't go
Don't leave me, leave me, leave me
I love you so
Don't leave me, leave me, leave me
Don't go, don't go
Don't leave me, leave me, leave me
I love you so
This may be the fantasy that I dream of baby
Time and time again, I knew that we would be more than friends
I gave you my heart and all of my time
But now you're actin' shady, is it all in my mind yeah
I know you're a busy man
Oh but you don't understand how it feels to be alone
When times get hard and I wanna feel
Your sweet and tender touch
That's all I'm askin' baby
'Cause I never asked for much, oh
Don't leave me, leave me, leave me
Don't go, don't go
Don't leave me, leave me, leave me
I love you so
Don't leave me, leave me, leave me
Don't go, don't go
Don't leave me, leave me, leave me
I love you so
Don't leave, don't leave
Don't leave me alone, an' I wanna be with you
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh yeah, oh, oh
I wanna be with you
Yes I do, yes I do
You've got my heart boy
You are the only one
If I can't be with you
I don't know what to do
You've got my heart boy
You are the only one
If I can't be with you
I don't know what to do
You've got my heart
You've got my heart
You've got my heart
You've got my heart
I wanna be your everything
