Don't Leave Me This Way Lyrics - Emma Jean - Lee Fields

When I first met you, I felt the flames of desire 

Been like I known you for years, oh yes i did 

But your heart grew colder, through the fire 

Left me holding back my tears 

I don't expect you to understand 

How these memories haunt my mind 

Now I walk alone late at night 

And I can't, can't, stop from crying 

Oh... Don't leave me this way 

Don't leave me this way 

Don't leave me this way 

Don't leave me this way 

You moved on but I keep holding on 

To the sweet lies that will never be 

I don't expect you to understand 

How these memories haunt my mind 

Now I walk alone late at night 

And I can't, can't stop from crying 

Oh... Don't leave me this way 

Don't leave me this way 

Don't leave me this way 

Don't leave me this way 

I'm trying baby, I'm begging you 

Can't you see that I need you? 

C'mon hear my _____ 

What am I to do? 

Don't you leave me, I can't take it 

Don't you leave me woman, don't you leave me 

I don't know what I'm gonna do 

I need you here by my side
