Leave your man, make him understand
Leave your man, make him understand
Leave your man, make him understand

Why do I try?
Awake at night
Why can't I fall asleep and get you off my mind?
Dreams come and dreams go, my darling
But you, you seem to stay for a while
I've got to get over this
Cause girl you can't stay in my mind

Jealousy is crushing
And I can't get you off my mind
Jealousy is crushing
And it kills me everytime

Leave your man, make him understand
Leave your man, make him understand

There are times when I close my eyes and it's only you I see
Feels like I keep my eyes closed cause you're staring back at me
One of these days, when I'm lucky, girl I know it
If you'd just take your man and leave
All I need is your beautiful love, darling
Give it to, give it to me

Jealousy is crushing
And I can't get you off my mind
Jealousy is crushing
and it kills me every time

Leave your man, make him understand
Leave your man, make him understand

Darling, need your love
Now I'm trying to tell you about these feelings I have inside
Now I'm giving you this moment
Start making up your mind
Your man don't love you
Don't understand you
Can't bring you to your knees
Now I'm asking, no I'm telling you, baby
Please

Leave your man, make him understand
Leave your man, make him understand
Leave your man, make him understand
Leave your man, make him understand

Please be kind to me, I want you
Please be kind to me, I want you
Please be kind to me, I want you
Please be kind to me, I want you
