DON'T LEAVE ME LONELY
(Strickland - Lawrence)
JOHNNIE STRICKLAND (ROULETTE R-4147, 1959)

(ooh-ooh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
Don't leave me lonely
Don't make me cry
Please say I'm your only
Your heart's desire
Just say you love me
Tell me you need me
The way I need you (way I need you)

Don't leave me lonesome
Don't make me blue
Because I don't want
No one but you
Just stand beside me
Stand there and guide me
Don't leave me lonely

They say we're too young, dear
To know what love means
But we're not too young, dear
For in my dreams
I see you tomorrow
Forever and ever
Here in my heart

Don't make me lonesome
Don't make me blue
Because I don't want
No one but you
Just stand beside me
Stand there and guide me
Don't leave me lonely

They say we're too young, dear
To know what love means
But we're not too young, dear
For in my dreams
I see you tomorrow
Forever and ever
Here in my heart

Don't leave me lonesome (lonesome)
Don't make me blue
Because I don't want no one but you
Just stand beside me
Stand there and guide me
Don't leave me lonely
(oh-oh-oh-oh)
