Once You Leave - Jody Watley

I met a guy like you a long time before

A real ladies' man, heartbreak for sure

Took advantage of a naïve man

But I learned a lesson and I told him, well

Once you leave, you can’t come back

Gonna take your love and throw away the key

Once you leave, you can’t come back

Gonna take your love and throw away the key

A guy will take your love and use it all

Still they won’t commit it’s love downfall

They run around in and out your life

They want a lover, they don’t need a wife

Sooner or later, you gotta make a stand

It’s hard, but it’s your happiness

Love me or leave me, it’s your choice

But when you go, this you should know

Oh, once you leave, you can’t come back

Gonna take your love and throw away the key

Once you leave, you can’t come back

Gonna take your love and throw away the key, yeah

So, you gonna go?

Well, bye-bye

Just remember, I won’t be waitin' around

Once you leave, you can’t come back

Gonna take your love and throw away the key

Once you leave, you can’t come back

Gonna take your love and throw away the key

Once you leave, you can’t come back

Gonna take your love and throw away the key

Oh, once you leave, you can’t come back

Gonna take your love and throw away the key

Yeah, yeah

Bye-bye

You got your hat, now get your coat
