If I had an audience I'd cover my face, lock away myself in a lonesome place
If I'd had a premonition of how this would be
I would still have begged and took you home with me
Still have done it all, done it hopelessly
And bury myself when all I could see
Well I lost my heart when my back was turned
If you see it could you let me know?
And if you've got to leave me, baby, won't you do it slow?
If I had a crystal ball I still wouldn't see it all
I swear I didn't do it just to make you crawl
And if I had a audience I'd ask them to leave,
how can I give them what I can't recieve?
How can I pray when I just don't believe?
And sometimes it takes, all your heart just to breathe
Well I lost my heart when my back was turned, if you see it could you let me know
And if you've got to leave me, baby, won't you do it slow?
There's nothing I wouldn't give in this old world, to be the man you met long ago
And if you've got to leave me, baby, won't you do it slow?
And if you've got to leave me, baby, won't you do it slow?
Oh don't let me see, don't linger at my door, tell me again was it to you I swore
That no one would play with your heart anymore?
Well I lost my heart when my back was turned If you see it could you let me know?
If you've got to leave me, baby, won't you do it slow?
There's nothing I wouldn't give in this whole world,
to be the man you met long ago
If you've got to leave me baby Won't you do it slow?
If you've got to leave me baby Won't you do it slow?
