Lyrics: The Isley Brothers. If You Leave Me Now.

Don't go, don't go
Oh whoa, don't go, yeah
Don't go, you can't leave me now
Oh, oh, whoa don't go

If you leave me now
You take away the biggest part of me, oh baby
Ooh no, woman please don't go
Ooh no, I gotta have your lovin'

And if you leave me now
You'll take away the very heart of me, babe
Don't break my heart woman
Ooh no, no baby please don't go
Ooh no, I want you to stay

Oh listen
A love like ours, this love is hard to find
How could we let it slip away, oh whoa
You see, we come too far baby, to leave it all behind

Look around
How could we end it all this way, don't
When tomorrow comes and we both regret
The things that we said, said today baby

Oh yeah, don't leave me
Don't leave me, don't leave me, ooh yeah
Try and understand baby

Ooh, baby
A love like ours, this love is hard to find
They don't have any baby
How could we let it slip away, oh it's slippin' baby
I feel it slippin' baby, slippin' away

We come too far to leave it all behind
How could we end it all today
Oh, when tomorrow comes and we'll both regret
The things that we said today, baby
I don't want that on me girl

And oh, if you leave me now
You'll take away the biggest, the biggest, the biggest part of me
Ooh, oh no, don't go baby
Ooh, I just want you to stay, shorty
Stay baby, stay, stay, stay babe

Don't go baby, la da da da da da da da da
Please don't go, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh, I ain't gon' let you leave babe
Oh, I'm gonna try my best to stop you baby, oh babe

Oh, this is Mr. Biggs baby
Oh, you know he can't let you do that
Not this week, not today, not this year
No way, no no no no no, no way baby

Oh you ain't leaving
Nobody leaves Mr. Biggs
Means you too baby
Oh yeah

Everybody around here know it babe
Think about your friends
Think about the neighbors
Your mother, oh you're father

Even the Lord, baby girl
What would He say to me
Whoa, I think He's so embarassed
And I ain't gon' have it

No, not today baby
If you leave me now
Move, walk away from the door
Close that door girl
