I never knew if I could make it.
I`d gotten used to bein` blue.
For so long I had to fake it.
But I fin`lly made it over you.
But then here you come,
Actin` like you were never gone.
You`re just havin` fun.
You must think I`m made of stone.
Why can`t you leave my heart alone.
If you can`t stay then just go on.
If I`m not the one you`ll always want.
Why can`t you leave my heart alone.
I used to like to play with fire,
I was attracted to your flame.
But now I have no desire,
To play that same old cryin` game.
I`m doin` fine:
I`ve got my feet back on the ground.
Made up my mind,
Till you start comin` back around.
Why can`t you leave my heart alone.
If you can`t stay then just go on.
If I`m not the one you`ll always want.
Why can`t you leave my heart alone.
I`m not a toy you can play with at will,
Then throw me away once you get your thrill.
You better watch yourself, the things that you do:
Someone could turn the tables on you.
Instrumental break.
Well here you come,
Actin` like you were never gone.
You`re just havin` fun.
You must think I`m made of stone.
Why can`t you leave my heart alone.
If you can`t stay then just go on.
If I`m not the one you`ll always want.
Why can`t you leave my heart alone.
Leave it alone.
This poor old heart.
