Don't Leave Me This Way - Lee Fields, The Expressions

When I first met you, I felt the flames of desire

Been like I known you for you years, oh yes i did

But your heart grew colder, through the fire

Left me holding back my tears

I don’t expect you to understand

How these memories haunt my mind

Now I walk alone late at night

And I can’t, can’t, stop from crying

Oh, Don’t leave me this way

Don’t leave me this way

Don’t leave me this way

Don’t leave me this way

You moved on but I keep holding on To the sweet lies that will never be I don’t expect you to understand

How these memories haunt my mind

Now I walk alone late at night

And I can’t, can’t stop from crying

Oh, Don’t leave me this way

Don’t leave me this way

Don’t leave me this way

Don’t leave me this way

I’m trying baby, I’m begging you

Can’t you see that I need you?

C’mon hear my _____

What am I to do?

Don’t you leave me, I can’t take it Don’t you leave me woman, don’t you leave me I don’t know what I’m gonna do I need you here by my side
