Just as I thought I'd make it You walk back into my life Just like you never left Just as I'd learned to be lonely You call up to tell me You're not sure if you're ready Oh, but ready or not You'll take what you've got And leave Oh, leave me alone With my heart I'm putting the pieces back Together again Just leave Oh, leave me alone With my dreams I can do without you You know what I mean? I wish I could write a love song To show you the way I feel Seems you don't like to listen Oh, but like it or not You'll take what you've got And leave Oh, leave me alone With my heart It's broken in two, and I'm not Thinking too straight Just leave Oh, leave me alone With my dreams You've taken everything else You know what I mean?
