Don't Let Me Leave

1. How can this be
Though all these years I have been true to thee
You had the nerve to say you're done with me
And that I should leave, girl, you're killing me.

Take another day
Before you go and throw it all away
And if you do I know we'll find a way
Just believe in me 'cause I'm here to stay.

[Chorus:]
Don't let me leave, girl
'Cause if I do I promise I will look the other way
Girl, I know you need me by your side
You don't see it, but I know it, this is why.

Don't let me leave, girl
Just let me tell you why
You're all I ever needed
And everything worth fighting for.

And everything worth fighting for.

You're all I ever needed
And everything worth fighting for.
