Once You Leave

(앨범: Larger Than Life - 1989)

I met a guy like you a long time before
A real ladies' man, heartbreak for sure
Took advantage of a naïve man
But I learned a lesson and I told him, well

Once you leave, you can't come back
Gonna take your love and throw away the key
Once you leave, you can't come back
Gonna take your love and throw away the key

A guy will take your love and use it all
Still they won't commit it's love downfall
They run around in and out your life
They want a lover, they don't need a wife

Sooner or later, you gotta make a stand
It's hard, but it's your happiness
Love me or leave me, it's your choice
But when you go, this you should know

Oh, once you leave, you can't come back
Gonna take your love and throw away the key
Once you leave, you can't come back
Gonna take your love and throw away the key, yeah

So, you gonna go?
Well, bye-bye
Just remember, I won't be waiting around

Once you leave, you can't come back
Gonna take your love and throw away the key
Once you leave, you can't come back
Gonna take your love and throw away the key

Once you leave, you can't come back
Gonna take your love and throw away the key
Oh, once you leave, you can't come back
Gonna take your love and throw away the key

Yeah, yeah

Bye-bye
You got your hat, now get your coat
