Why Won't You Leave Me?

Why won't you leave me?

Oh you know I'm no good

I don't give love to you the way that I should

And when I tell you that I can't when I could

Baby, you should leave me like a fine girl would

You just believe me when I tell you it's true

What you imagine hasn't happened to you, oh

And when I go and leave a tack in your shoe

You just go on walking like it's nothing new

Are you gonna stay here

And be by my side

When all I do all day

Is run and hide

You know that you can't

Get blood from a stone

Unless it's your own

Why did you leave me?

It was just a mistake

I didn't think the execution would take

Maybe it's time I cleaned the mess that I made

You were all I wanted girl, is it too late?

Why did you leave me, oh

I'm missing you so

I felt so much that not a

Bit of it showed

I know it's over but I want you to know

I can be without you but I don't wanna go

And try my luck with another in a long line

Of lows

I'm doing my best but I can barely roll with the blows

And baby I'm not

Trying to pull you back to my arms

But I wouldn't mind

If you'd be so kind

Why won't you leave me?

Why won't you leave me alone?

Why won't you leave me?

Oh, you ring in my head

I really thought I'd put this issue to bed

I never thought that I would rather be dead

Than begging you to leave me one more time instead

Why won't you leave me?

Why won't you leave me alone?
