Ooh...baby
Ooh...baby
Ooh...ooh...ooh...
Since the day I saw you, baby, I knew you were for me
Always all by myself, I sought your company
All the fellas told me that you played me for a fool
Said I wouldn't hang out, I'd go home right after school
What did I do to you
To make you feel this way
You said you'd be my baby
Never go away, go away
How could you leave when I need you, baby
How could you leave when I need you, baby
How could you leave when I need you, baby
How could you leave when I need you, baby
(Ooh...baby) How could you leave when I need you, baby
(Ooh...baby) How could you leave when I need you, baby
(Ooh...ooh...ooh...) How could you leave when I need you, baby
How could you leave when I need you, baby
Spent all my time, baby, just working on my form
Trying to improve myself so I could give you more
You told me I was turning out the way that I should be
How could I know that you would turn your back on me
What did I do to you
To make you feel this way
You said you'd be my baby
Never go away, go away
How could you leave when I need you, baby
How could you leave when I need you, baby
How could you leave when I need you, baby
How could you leave when I need you, baby
(Ooh...baby) How could you leave when I need you, baby
(Ooh...baby) How could you leave when I need you, baby
(Ooh...ooh...ooh...) How could you leave when I need you, baby
How could you leave when I need you, baby
(Ooh...baby) How could you leave when I need you, baby
(Ooh...baby) How could you leave when I need you, baby
(Ooh...ooh...ooh...) How could you leave when I need you, baby
How could you leave when I need you, baby
Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
How could you leave
Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
How could you leave
How could you leave
How could you leave
How could you leave
