Imelda May - Leave Me Lonely Lyrics

Why does the knife feel longer than a rapier
When you've gone and left me, yeah you left me, yet again
And how come it's different, it isn't what I thought I needed
Why do I miss you, wanna kiss you, when I think you're leavin'
Why do I long for you more

When you leave me lonely
Leave me only
With the scent of your skin
Scene of our sins in the dark
Leave me wanting
To feel you holding
Me closer than ever
So close to heaven
That you never
Leave me lonely

It's ok, I'm all good, ain't sayin' couldn't live without you 'cause I could
But I'd rather, rather have you, wanna love you, love you like a worn shirt
Oh baby, won't you take me, hate to admit it but I'm crazy
For you, for us, for this, whatever this is
So love me once more before

You leave me lonely
Leave me only
With the scent of your skin
Scene of our sins in the dark
Leave me wanting
To feel you holding
Me closer than ever
So close to heaven
That you never
Leave me lonely

Love me, hold me, don't leave me lonely
Now take me, make me, baby don't break me
Oh pinch me, miss me, tell me you'll take me with you

Don't leave me lonely
Leave me only
With the scent of your skin
Scene of our sins in the dark
Leave me wanting
To feel you holding
Me closer than ever
So close to heaven
That you never
Leave me lonely
