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