If you wanna leave then just go

Cause I can't get no sun in your shadow

If you ain't gonna love me, fight me

Then I'm gonna turn the other cheek and go

Go, go

Cause I've been hanging on the telephone,

Lines that you always told me

Now I can't let go

I've been living off the last time

You warm me with your words

But now I'm tired and I'm getting cold

Cold, oh, oh, oh

If you wanna leave then just go

Cause I can't get no sun in your shadow

If you ain't gonna love me, 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 hold me just close enough to keep me here

So pull your anchor up

And head to shore or sail away, oh

If you wanna leave,

If you wanna leave

Then just go

Cause I've been hanging on the telephone

Lines that you always told me

Now I can't let go

I've been living off 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, fight me

Then I'm gonna turn the other cheek and go, go, go

Turn the other cheek and go, go, go

I'm better off alone,

Better off alone
