| Don't Leave Me This Way |
| Thelma Houston |
Um-hm-hm... aah ah ah... Don't leave me this way I can't survive, can't stay alive Without your love, oh baby Don't leave me this way, no I can't exist, I'll surely miss your tender kiss Don't leave me this way [A broken man with empty hands Oh baby please, don't leave me this way] * Aaah baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you Now come on down and do what you gotta do [/Now come on girl and do what you gotta do]* You started this fire down in my soul Now can't you see it's burning out of control Come on [now]* satisfy the need in me Only your good lovin' can set me free... hey Don't, don't you leave me this way, no Don't you understand I'm at your command Oh baby please, please don't leave me this way Aaah baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you Now come on down and do what you gotta do [/Now come on girl and do what you gotta do]* You started this fire down in my soul Now can't you see it's burning out of control Come on [now]* satisfy the need in me Only your good lovin' can set me free... hey Need your lovin' baby, need need your love right now... Your love is so important to me... got to have it... ['Cause it would be wrong To string me along a love so true]* |
