I can't survive, I 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
Ahh, baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you
Now come on down and do what you gotta do
You started this fire down in my soul
Now can't you see it's burning outta control
And come on, satisfy the need in me
'Cause only your good lovin' can set me free (set me free, set me free), yeah
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

You started this fire down in my soul
Now can't you see it's burning out of control
So come on, satisfy the need in me
'Cause only your good lovin' can set me free (set me free, set me free), ah
Need your lovin', baby, need it, need it
Satisfy the need in me
