The O’Jays
You’re Leaving Me
[Verse 1]
Just, just, just forget it Eddy
No, don't you walk out that door
And leave me, leave me
Oh baby, oh baby please
I said don't do it this way
(You're leaving me)
I say you're leaving me
For my very, my very, my very best friend (You're leaving me)
Oh baby (Yes you are)
(You're leaving)
When no one else wanted you (You're leaving me)
I took you in
Oh baby, I took you around
And let you meet all of my friends
Yes I did
[Chorus]
And now, now you look at me
With the smile on your face
And tеll me to get someonе else, oh
To take your place
Oh baby
('Cause you're leaving me)
Hey baby, I say, I just realized
That you're leaving me
Oh baby, and I don't know
I just don't know what I'm gonna do
[Verse 2]
I only smile when you came (You're leaving me)
And laid at night
And I watched you, I watch you
Oh baby
You went into the bedroom, ha
To make your lipstick right
Oh baby, baby
Listen to me
[Chorus]
Now you look at me
With the smile on your face
And you tell me, you tell me to get someone else
To take your place
Oh baby, oh baby, hey
('Cause you're leaving me)
I say, I say, I just realized
Girl that you're leaving me
And I, and I don't know
I just don't know
What I'm gonna do?
[Bridge]
No (You're leaving me)
Hey baby
Do you, do you really wanna
Walk away and leave me
Here all alone
What shall I do? Oh girl
[Chorus]
You look at me
With the smile on your face
And you tell me, you tell me to get someone else
Hey baby, to take your place
Oh girl, hey
('Cause you're leaving me) ho-oh
I'm so all alone
That you're (Yes you're leaving me)
Oh baby, and I just don't
I just don't know what to do
[Outro]
No (You're leaving me)
I say I'm gonna cry, girl
If you don't come back real soon
Hey baby, I need your love
So doggone bad
Yes I do
(You're leaving me) oh baby
I said don't you walk away
And don't, and don't you
Don't you nev-
Don't you wanna love me?
Oh-
