Dee Harvey - Leave Well Enough Alone Lyrics

Lyrics

Girl you know that I'm committed to someone else
So why you wanna push me to my limits
Everytime that I come near you, I wanna do what you want me to do but, but it wouldn't be cool
I'm not cold, so why am I shakin' girl. you've put me through some serious changes

Bridge:
And my mind keeps tellin me to turn and walk away, ooh girl let me before it's too late

Chorus:
You know I want to kiss you(but I better leave now) ooh
I want to stay here all night(but I need to go, to goooo)
You make me weak so why I'm strong, I better leave well enough alone oh

Girl you know it's getting so much harder(I can't control myself)
Better stop this thing before it goes on any further
I never thought that this could happen to me
I'm torn between what I want and what I need
2nd bridge:
Sometimes I feel like I'm goin' crazy
Girl you've put me through some serious changes
And my mind, keeps telling me to think it over
Please, please don't come any closer

Chorus:
You know I want to kiss you(but I better leave now) ooh
I want to stay here all night(but I need to go, to goooo)
You make me weak so why I'm strong, I better leave well enough alone oh

The break down:
You know I try so hard to be a faithful man
You know my situation, you said you understand, babe
But baby one look at you
I wanna break down I do
You know what I'm feeling
So let me go while I'm still willing

Chorus:
You know I want to kiss you(but I better leave now) ooh
I want to stay here all night(but I need to go, to goooo)
You make me weak so why I'm strong, I better leave well enough alone oh

I just wanna do the right thing baby, ooh
I better leave, I better go
Cause if I stay any longer I'm gonna be wrapped up, tied up
Ooooooooooooooh let me go
