[Verse 1] If you leave me Leave me guessing darling Then I guess you’re not for me When you’re talking Talking with an old friend And you decide you must be free [Chorus 1] Tell me why, why woman Can we leave a good thing be? Tell me why, why woman Did you give up so easily? [Verse 2] When you’re looking Looking for some heat now And I’m as cold as cold can be And you’re talking Talking about a change now But those changes aren’t with me [Chorus 2] Tell me why, why woman Can we just leave a good thing be? Tell me why, why woman Can we just be happy? [Bridge] Better leave it alone Let it work out by itself My friends keep telling me, no Why she’s not with nobody else Oh but I don’t know [Chorus 3] Tell me why, why woman Can we just leave a good thing be? Tell me why, why woman Just stick around and work it out with me
