Introduction: D Bm D Bm
D A
The nights are wearing me down
Bm G
And it's hard getting through the day
Bm A
'Cause I need you right now
D A
And right now you're so far away
D A
I guess that I should have known
Bm G
That I'd end up this way
Bm A
But I swear I'll come home
D A
And then nothing will drag me away
D Bm
Don't you ever leave me, baby
D Bm
Don't you ever leave me now
D Bm
Don't you ever leave me, baby
D Bm
If you leave me you will kill me now
G
Now that so much time has passed
Bm
I know that this love of ours will last forever
G
'Cause we feel it, keep it, hold it and believe it
Bm
You need me like I need you
A
I know you do, I'm sure you do
D A
The lights are slowly going down
Bm G
On Lexington Avenue
Bm A D
And me, I'm all alone feeling the tears
A
Falling down from my eyes
D A
A subway train is passing by
Bm G
Driving into the darkness
Bm A D
I jump inside 'cause I ain't got
A
Nowhere to sleep tonight
D Bm
Don't you ever leave me, baby
D Bm
Don't you ever leave me now
D Bm
Don't you ever leave me, baby
D Bm
If you leave me you will kill me now
G
I was forcing myself just to walk through the day
Bm
When all I really wanted to do was curl up in a corner and cry
G
Nothing had any meaning and I just think
Let's give it another day and see if anything happens
Bm A
Then you came along like my own ray of sunshine
And made me feel warm, safe and alive again
