Only When You Leave - Spandau Ballet

Laying in the after glow

I only want to learn what you know

but now you’re leaving

how many hearts must you break?

how many calls must I make?

but now you’re leaving

in this world all that I choose has come unbearable

but love is in your touch

oh it’s killing me so much

only when you leave

I’ll need to love you

and when the action has all gone

I’m just a little fool enough to need you

fool enough too long

only when you leave, you’ll leave in danger

oh I’ll make sure that you pay

so give a little passion to a stranger

and take this soul away

I only want to make this things last

so how could this have gone so fast

and now you’re leaving

how many times must I learn

it' s only when you’ve gone that I burn

and now you’re leaving

In the end, all that I left has come unbearable

it’s hard to change your mind,

so leave it all behind

Only when you leave

I’ll need to love you

and when the action has all gone

I’m just a little fool enough to need you

fool enough to long

only when you leave, you'll leave in danger

oh I’ll make sure that you pay

so give a little passion to a stranger

and take this soul away
