Love Me, or Leave Me - Kay Starr, Barney Bigard

You hold your arms open wide

You say come and lay by your side

If this is just another ride you’re taking me on

Then leave me alone

I’m not your part-time man

Love is more than now and then

I’ve enjoyed as much as this, as I can stand

So, love me or leave me alone

Love me or leave me alone

Love me or, baby

Believe me, I’m gone

This time I’m gonna be strong

Maybe once upon a time

I was young and love was blind

I thought I had finally made up my mind

It’s sad, but

Love me or leave me alone

Love me or leave me alone

Love me or, baby

Believe me, I’m gone

Love me or leave me

Girl, don’t deceive me

Love me or leave me alone
