Don't Leave Me This Way

When I first met you, I felt the flames of desire

Been like I known you for years, oh yes I did

But your heart grew colder through the fire

Left me holding back my tears

I don't expect you to understand

How these memories haunt my mind

Now I walk alone late at night

And I can't, can't stop from crying, oh

Don't leave me this way

Don't leave me this way

Don't leave me this way

Don't leave me this way

You moved on but I keep holding on

To the sweet lies that will never be

I don't expect you to understand

How these memories haunt my mind

Now I walk alone late at night

And I can't, can't stop from crying, oh

Don't leave me this way

Don't leave me this way

Don't leave me this way

Don't leave me this way

I'm crying baby, I'm begging you

Can't you see I need you?

Don't you hear me cry

What am I to do?

Don't you leave me, I can't take it

Don't you leave me woman, don't you leave me

I don't know what I'm gonna do

I need you here by my side
