Lyrics
Don't Leave Me Hangin'
I feel you driftin' away
but, I believe we've got somethin' to save.
There're some mistakes that we've made,
but, don't throw away all the dues that we've paid.
You've been torn before,
so be sure when you walk out my door!
Don't leave me hangin' ~
leave me to twist in the wind.
Don't leave me hangin' ~
hangin' without end.....
You must admit it's not fair,
'cause I deserve someone's love I can share.
You said, you need more time to prepare,
well, I have given all the time I can spare.
You've been torn before,
so be sure when you walk out my door!
Don't leave me hangin' ~
leave me to twist in the wind.
Don't leave me hangin' ~
hangin' without end.....
