I Cant Leave You by The Destinations Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1968

Can't stand the thought of leaving you, baby
Can't stand the thought of losing you, baby

From a skyscraper, I jumped
But I didn't hit the ground
Tied hand and foot, I jumped into a river
And I didn't drown
Oh double, double dose of arsenic is supposed to do the job mighty, mighty, mighty, mighty quick

But every time I think about leaving you behind
Quick as a wink, quick as a wink, I change my mind

I can't bear the thought of leaving you behind
How can I leave such a good love behind to someone else?

You made me want to get rid of myself
Because you found someone new
But when I think about someone else's arms around you
I could never see it through
Oh our romance just died for me
But as long as I'm alive, there's a chance for me
And every time I think about leaving you behind
Quick as a wink, quick as a wink, I change my mind

I can't bear the thought of leaving you behind
How can I leave such a good love behind to someone else?

I can't bear the thought of someone else holding you
I can't bear the thought of someone else kissing you
I can't bear the thought of someone else loving you

Oh, my baby, I really love you
Hoo-hoo-hoo-ooo-ooo
