Leave My Heart Alone - Deborah Allen

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
