Don't leave me here. Skirt in the air
With muted cares, all limbs and love absurd
I know I say, "just let me stay"
But stomp the ground, push me around.
And send me to my way.
No, no, no , don't leave me
Don't take my word, I've lost my head
I need my bed, I promise you my bird
When I awake all sweet and sound, without a care or woe
I'll thank you dear. I'll kiss you love, no matter friend or foe
I want to be the best I can
For me for you for everyman
But I can slip, I lose my place
This shamefulness is hard to face
No no no don't tell me
Of what I've done. I might ignore,
Just close the door, before you have your fun
You tell it with such grace and wit
I know it can be humorous.
But I don't have the heart for it.
Oh, oh oh, don't look
I've lost my way. I'll button up
Hold out my cup, and beg for a clich?
I have no rights to a complaint
I guess it's just a little nuts
We're all bit insane
I want to be the best I can
For me for you for everyman
But I can slip, I lose my place
This shamefulness is hard to face
Oh please let me
Keep my head.
It wouldn't do you any good
Just hanging by a thread.
I want to be the best I can
Nose to the ground, it's pound for pound
Or stick it to the man.
I want to be the best I can
For me for you for everyman
But I can slip, I lose my place
This shamefulness is hard to face
Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, leave me Don't leave me here. Skirt in the air With muted cares, all limbs and love absurd I know I say, "just let me stay" But stomp the ground, push me around. And send me to my way. No, no, no , don't leave me Don't take my word, I've lost my head I need my bed, I promise you my bird When I awake all sweet and sound, without a care or woe I'll thank you dear. I'll kiss you love, no matter friend or foe I want to be the best I can For me for you for everyman But I can slip, I lose my place This shamefulness is hard to face No no no don't tell me Of what I've done.
