If I had an audience
I'd cover my face
Lock away myself
In a lonesome place
If I'd had a premonition
Of how this would be
I would still have begged
And took you home with me
Still have done it all
Done it hopelessly
And buried myself where no eye could see
Well I lost my heart when my back was turned
If you see it could you let me know
And if you've got to leave me, baby
Won't you do it slow
If I had a crystal ball
I still wouldn't see it all
I swear I didn't do it
Just to make you crawl
And if I had a audience
I'd ask them to leave
How can I give them what I can't receive
How can I pray when I just don't believe
And sometimes it takes
All your heart just to breathe
Well I lost my heart when my back was turned
If you see it could you let me know
And if you've got to leave me baby
Won't you do it slow
There's nothing I wouldn't give in this world
To be the man you met long ago
And if you've got to leave me baby
Won't you do it slow
If you've got to leave me baby
Won't you do it slow
Don't let me see
Don't linger at my door
Tell me again
Was it to you I swore
That no one would play
With your heart anymore?
Well I lost my heart when my back was turned
If you see it could you let me know
And if you've got to leave me baby
Won't you do it slow
If you've got to leave me baby
Won't you do it slow?
If you've got to leave me baby
Won't you do it slow?
If you've got to leave me baby
Won't you do it slow?
