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?
