| 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 |
