How Could You Do It To Me

(album: All By Myself - 1987)

How could you do it to me
How could you leave me here this way, mmm...
After all we've been through
You just turned and walked away
Whoa, baby
(How could you do it to me, baby)
How could you do it to me
Oh, how could you do it to me, baby
How could you do it to me, oh, yeah

You were the star of my life
You were the reason and the joy of it too
And now that you walked out on me
Please tell me, what am I gonna do
Since I don't have you, no, oh, baby

How could you do it to me
How could you leave me here this way, mmm...
After all these years, baby, mm-hmm
You just turned and walked away
Oh, yeah, yeah
(How could you do it to me, baby)
How could you do it to me, oh, yeah
Oh, baby
(How could you do it to me, baby)
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
(How could you do it to me)

We had such a good thing
We had the whole world
The whole world in our hands
And I tried, I tried so hard, baby
I had so many, many, many
I had so many plans for me and my man, yeah

You were the star of my life
Now you're trying to leave me, baby
Please don't go, no
I love, you, babe
Please stay, yeah

How could you do it to me, baby
How could you do it to me, whoa, yeah
After all these years
(How could you do it to me, baby)
After all these years
(How could you do it to me)
How, yeah...

Don't you leave here this way boy
Whoa, baby
(How could you do it to me, baby)
How could you do it to me, boy
No, no, don't leave me this way, boy
(How could you do it to me, baby)
(How could you do it to me)
Oh-oh-oh, yeah
(How could you do it to me, baby)
(How could you do it to me)
I've cried so many tears
After all these years
