Lyrics
You say you should leave me - that you could do better than this
You say you'll find somebody new and I wouldn't be missed
You think I'm a simple little space to be filled
You blindly cast out what took so long to build
Please don't leave don't throw this all away
don't walk away
Rumors can torture the sweetest song
Destroy and ruin a love so strong
I never could do the things they say I do
Just look in my eyes love, you'll know it ain't true
Please don't leave don't throw this all away
don't walk away
Please don't leave I'm begging you to stay
Why don't you stay
For so long girl - we were hand in hand
You tell me you're leaving but I can't understand
My heart has been broken, my life has been shattered
and we're not even close to the heart of the matter - what's the matter
Please don't leave don't throw this all away
Don't turn your back, don't walk away
You can't believe in everything they say
You're all that I want, why don't you stay
Please don't leave, why don't you stay
