Dont Leave Me

"Don't Leave Me" (Ben Lee)

--------------------------

from the album GRANDPAW WOULD (Grand Royal, 1995)

NOTE: The part leading up to the chorus isn't exactly correct.

I'll fix it when I have time to work on it.

Would you resent me if I said I'd miss you

And would you hate me if I wanted to kiss you

And would you love me if I was stoic

And if I told you would you already know it

Well I'm coping better than before

But it's so hard to watch you leave

So don't leave me please

Don't leave me please

You're like a chatterfear(?) you're not changing

If I gave you a present would you try to exchange it

If I tried to please you would you make me feel awkward

If I went away would you make me move forward

Well if you decide to go away

For a year a month a week

So don't leave me please

Don't leave me please

Well I'm coping better than before

But it's so hard to watch you leave

So don't leave me please
