LYRIC FOR SALE

By HELEN KIELY-O REGAN

DON’T LEAVE ME

Baby, I can’t live my life without you
So what can I do to make you true
You broke my heart, tore my life apart
When you went out and found a love so new

What has she got, that I ain’t got
Her face, her style, that ain’t so hot
She can’t love you more, that I know
So find her and tell her where to go

All alone today, I walked down Broadway
But no sign of you around
Rockefeller center, Times Square, China Town
Looks like you’ve left town

Upper East side, Spanish Harlem
I smell the Caribbean coconut
Hermanos, hermanas, amigos tell me
You’ve not come back home yet

I go off alone and feel so blue
My heart, it cries out over you
I think of her and I want to die
If you love her more, I wonder why

Baby, I love you so much, so please be mine
It you love me too, give me a sign
My body, my life is yours always
I will love you all til the end of my days
