Lyrics

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics!

There’s been a lot of talk around
That you’ve been seen with a certain party
And now I’m so afraid I’m losing you
Oh baby, don’t tell me you don’t want my love
I couldn’t give it to just anybody
Baby won’t you tell me its not true
Don’t leave me baby
Don’t tell me its over
After I trusted you
And did my best to make you happy
Is this what I get for loving you baby
Is this what I get for loving you baby
There was a night when you held me tight
And you said you’d always love me
You sad you’d never hurt meWhat would there be left for me
Its such a cruel world to be alone in
I always needed you to look out for me
And baby I’m gonna miss your loving armsThey’re the only arms I feel at home in
Don’t you know how lonely I’m gonna be
Don’t leave me baby
Don’t tell me its over
After I trusted you and did my best to make you happy
Is this what I get for loving you baby
Is this what I get for loving you baby
There was a night when you held me tight
And you said you’d always love me
(And you said you’d never hurt me)
You said you’d never hurt me
(You said you’d never hurt me)Don’t leave me baby
Is this what I get for loving you baby
Is this what I get for loving you baby
There was a night when you held me tight
And you said you’d always love me
You said you’d never hurt me
