Verse:
Well if you leave me, I’m gonna cry. I’m gonna cry, baby ... I’m gonna cry.
‘Coz I still love you, and if you leave, I won’t know why.
If you don’t need me, why can’t you lie? Why can’t you lie, baby? Why can’t you lie?
And tell me that you love me, 'coz if you won’t, I’m gonna die.
Break:
Just don’t keep me wondering now, what’s on your mind?
Thinking ‘bout your love, baby - my, my, my
Heaven never meant to have a poor boy so mystified.
Chorus:
If You Leave Me – I’ll be devastated; I won’t sleep at night
If You Leave Me – I’ll get intoxicated; Looking for a fight
If You Leave Me – I’ll be incarcerated; such a scary plight
If You Leave Me – Things get so complicated; only one way right …
I’ll be your loving man … ain’t never gonna roam
So please don’t leave me alone - hep, hep, hey...
Break:
Don’t let some high-falooting fancy … poison up your mind
Turning you against me … get you riding up so high
‘Coz one day you’ll wake up and you’ll find … that I’m you’re lovin’ kind
Verse:
Well if you leave me, I’m gonna cry. I’m gonna cry (now) baby ... I’m gonna cry.
‘Coz I still love you, and if you leave, I won’t no why.
If you believe me, bury your pride. Bury your pride baby. Bury your pride.
And come-on back and love me, just like you used to do so fine.
Break:
Just don’t keep me wondering now, what’s on your mind?
Thinking ‘bout your love, baby - my, my, my
Heaven never meant to have a poor boy so mystified.
Chorus:
If You Leave Me – I’ll be devastated; I won’t sleep at night
If You Leave Me – I’ll get intoxicated; Looking for a fight
If You Leave Me – I’ll be incarcerated; such a scary plight
If You Leave Me – Things get so complicated; only one way right …
I’ll be your loving man … ain’t never gonna roam
So please don’t leave me alone (repeat)
Don’t leave me, baby!

Additional Verse:
If you deceive me and say you’re mine, that’s not unkind darling … that’s not unkind.
‘Coz that little lie might sprout out some wings and love could fly.
Now I’m believing, deep down inside. Deep down inside, honey ... deep down inside.
That you still love me, and if you do, don’t pass it by.
Additional Break:
You got some high-falooting fancy … poisoning your mind
It’s turning you against me … got you riding up so high
But one day you’ll wake up and you’ll find … that I’m you’re lovin’ kind
