Lyrics
If you've got something on your mind why don't you tell it to me now?
You know it's crueller to be kind - you're gonna get there anyhow.
Don't think I need your sympathy to get me through the night
If you're leaving, leave my dignity - don't leave me lies.
If there's some place you'd rather be, drop the keys through my door (like some junk mailer)
Just say the word and you'll be free - if you don't want me any more (I'm not your jailer).
Don't think I need your sympathy to get me through the night
If you're leaving, leave my dignity - don't leave me lies.
Is she pretty? Is she smart?
Is she the woman of your dreams?
And does she know that when you're chasing all the sweetness at the start...
The end is closer than it seems?
Don't think I need your sympathy to get me through the night
If you're leaving, leave my dignity - don't leave me lies.
Just leave my dignity,
Don't leave me lies.
