Please Don't Leave Lauren Wood Backing vocals: Michael McDonald (Lauren Wood) Oooh, you have won Take my heart I think about you night and day Am I wrong in this game Sometimes you seem so far away And I'm longing for your touch Darlin' don't leave me this way Darlin' don't leave me at all Ooh you're here And you're there, everywhere But I never know just where you're at Do your eyes tell me lies I thought that they were saying that You were longing for my touch Darlin' don't leave me this way Darlin' don't leave me at all You are the sweetest thing I found In New York City (sweetest thing I found) You are the sweetest thing I found In my life You are the sweetest thing I really think you're pretty (sweetest thing I found) You are the finest thing that's happened to my life Oooh, you have won Take my heart I think about you night and day Am I wrong (am I wrong) in this game Sometimes you seem so far away And I'm longing for your touch Darlin' don't leave me (don't leave me) this way Darlin' don't leave me at all (instrumental break) Please don't leave me now... Darlin' don't leave me (don't leave me) this way Darlin' don't leave me at all Don't leave me oooh, don't leave me Darlin', Darlin' Please don't leave me Darlin' don't leave me at all Ah, ha ah, ha (Repeat and fade) From: "David Hayman"
