[Intro]
[Piano]
Don't leave me this way,
I can't survive, I can't stay alive
Without your love, oh boy
Don't leave me this way, now
I can't exist, I will surely miss
Your tender kiss, don't leave me this way
Oh... boy, my heart is full of love and desire for you
Now, come on down and do what you've got to do
You started this fire down in my soul
Now can't you see it's burning out of control?
Then come on, satisfy the need in me
'Cause only your good loving can set me free
Set me free boy, Yeah, set me free
[Instrumental Interlude]
Don't, you leave me this way, no
Don't you understand, I'm at your command?
Oh no, please, don't leave me this way,
Don't leave me this way,
I can't survive, I can’t survive, I can't stay alive
Without your love, boy
Don't leave me this way now
I would surely miss, your tender kiss
Don’t leave me this way
Oh... Boy, my heart is full of love and desire for you
So come on down and do what you've got to do
Boy, 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 loving can set me free
Set me free, set me free
Need your loving, oh yeah, I need, need
Woah, ooh. Oooh, Oooh,
I need your love right now
[Bridge]
I really need your lovin’ right now...
Your love is so important to me...
Satisfy this burnin’ need in me...
Woah, ooh baby, come and satisfy the need...
Don't leave me this way, no
Don’t don’t, don’t no leave me this way
D-D-D Don’t, leave me this way
Woah oh oh,
Please, please, D-Don’t leave me this way
Don't leave me this way,
Please, please boy, stay!
[End]
