don't leave - you're taking my heart and my soul
baby don'tcha walk out the door
tell me that you'll stay with me.

i followed a dream high up in the mountain
a dream i thought was true
you wanted me to be with you ,
it was love, o yeah
i followed the way, far on a journey
that brought me close to you
i gave you all that i had
and now we're thru

don't leave -
you're taking my heart and my soul
baby don'tcha walk out the door
tell me that you'll stay with me
don't leave -
you're killing my true love again
evertime i think it's the end
baby won'tcha stay here with me '

you promised me love, love was forever
you wouldn't go away
you wanted me to believe you -
it was trust, oh yeah
you told me that we belonged together and you would keep me safe
was everything thing that we had a big mistake

don't leave -
you're taking my heart and my soul
baby don'tcha walk out the door
tell me that you'll stay with me
don't leave -
you're killing my true love again
evertime i think it's the end
baby won'tcha stay here with me
