Harry Nilsson › Lyrics › Don't Leave Me

The willow weeps and having wept
Can weep no more but still it cries for me
It cries in sympathy, it knows that you are gone
Don't leave me, baby

There was a time when you were mine
And not so long ago I used to say
You'd never go away, you'd never leave me lonely
Don't leave me, baby

Think about the happy times, the groovy times
Don't tell me they are gone, I just can't carry on
I know that you're not here
You're not near anymore

Don't leave me, baby
Things are gonna work out fine
Don't leave me, baby
Think I'm going out of my mind
Don't leave me, baby
Don't leave me behind

Babe, babe, babe, baby, yeah
Babe, babe, babe, baby, yeah
Babe, babe, babe, baby, yeah
Babe, babe, babe, baby, yeah

The willow weeps and having wept
Can weep no more but still it cries for me
It cries in sympathy, it knows that you are gone
