[Verse 1]
You left me standing there alone
Tears in my eyes, boy
You couldn’t bring yourself to look at my face
No no no, no
You said your words so cold
I felt the wind knocked out of me
Always looking for a chance to run away
It’s okay to be scared
I know it’s not your fault
Keep on trying to find a way to break down your walls (ooh, ah ah, ooh)
And it ain’t easy but baby I’ll find a way into your heart (ooh, ah ah, ooh)
And if not today, baby time will tell if we’re meant to be
[Chorus]
But baby don’t leave
I’ve got so many things to say
Take it easy on yourself
Baby don’t hide
I can see by the look in your eyes
You think you’ve seen it all before
Give me a try
Let me get nearer, don’t push me aside, aside, yeah
[Verse 2]
I know you’ve been hurt before
Your heart was broken
And now you find it so very hard to say the right words
You hate how they sound, yeah
I keep on waiting and hoping you will open your soul (ooh, ah ah, ooh)
And if your nights get colder you can always lean on my shoulder (ooh, ah ah, ooh)
And if not today, baby time will tell if we’re meant to be
[Chorus]
But baby don’t leave
I’ve got so many things to say, yeah
Take it easy on yourself
Baby don’t hide
I can see by the look in your eyes
You think you’ve seen it all before
Give me a try
Let me get nearer, don’t push me aside
[Bridge]
I keep on trying to find a way to break down your walls
And it ain’t easy but baby I’ll find a way into your heart
I just can’t say no
I just can’t let go
It’s tearing me apart
[Chorus]
Baby don’t leave (Baby don’t leave)
I’ve got so many things to say (I’ve got so many, I’ve got so many, I’ve got so many things to say, yeah)
Take it easy on yourself
Baby don’t hide (Ooh)
I can see by the look in your eyes (I can see by the look in your eyes)
You think you’ve seen it all before
Give me a try
Let me get nearer, don’t push me aside (Never, never, never, never push me aside)
