If you wanna leave then just go
'Cause I can't get no sun in your shadow
If you ain't gonna love me and fight me
Then I'm gonna turn the other cheek and go, go, go
'Cause I've been hangin' on the telephone
Lines that you always told me
And now I can't let go
I believed in them the last time
You warm me with your words
But now I'm tired and I'm getting cold, cold
If you wanna leave then just go
'Cause I can't get no sun in your shadow
If you ain't gonna love me and fight me
Then I'm gonna turn the other cheek and go, go, go
Turn the other cheek and go, go, go
'Cause every time I push you from me
Just close enough to keep me here
So pull your anchor up
Then head to shore or sail away
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave, then just go
'Cause I've been hangin' on the telephone
Lines that you always told me
An now I can't let go
I believed in them the last time
You told me you would try
But boy this is getting old
So old
If you wanna leave then just go
'Cause I can't get no sun in your shadow
If you ain't gonna love me and fight me
Then I'm gonna turn the other cheek and go, go, go
Turn the other cheek and go, go, go
I'll be better off alone
Better off alone
