Don't leave me this way I can't survive, I can't stay alive Without your love, oh baby. Don't leave me this way I can't exist, I will surely miss Your tender kiss So don't leave me this way. My baby, my heart is full of your heart and desire for you So come on down and do what you've got to do Your started this fire down in my soul Now can you see it's burning out of control So come on down and satisfy the need in me Cos only your good loving can set me free. Don't leave me this way I don't understand how I'm at your command So baby please don't leave me this way. Don't leave me this way I can't exist, I will surely miss Your tender kiss So don't leave me this way. Oh baby, my heart is full of heart and desire for you. Don't leave me this way I can't survive, I can't stay alive Without your love, oh baby. Don't leave me this way I can't exist, I will surely miss Your tender kiss So don't leave me this way. Oh baby, my heart is full of heart and desire for you. So come on down and satisfy the need in me Cos only your good loving can set me free.
