Don't Tell Me Why You're Leavin'[Street talk-1984]
DON'T TELL ME WHY YOU'RE LEAVING (Steve Perry, Danny Kortchmar, Craig Krampf) Whoa, I've been tryin' To talk to you But there's no one home Girl, I've been tryin' To get closer Ooh, but I'm tryin' alone
So when you hit me with your danger smile Try to play me for a fool I know you're lyin', baby That's your style But I'm not playing by those rules
Now I know our love is faded Oh, like the end of lonely days It's our love we should be savin' No, instead we're slippin' away
Think you two-time me with your double talk And you expect me to believe it, oh Before you pack your bags and take a walk Just one more time I've gotta say
Don't tell me why you're leaving I don't wanna know Don't tell me why you're leaving Just, just, just, just, just, just, just let me go
Whoa, you hit me with your danger smile Tried to play me for a fool I know you're lyin', baby That's your style I'm not playin' by those rules
So don't tell me why you're leaving I don't wanna know Don't tell me why you're leaving Just, just, just, just, just, just, just let me go
Now, now, wait, wait a minute now, hold on You said what? Where now? With who? What? You talkin' to me? Woman, watch out, watch out, watch your mouth, girl Watch what you're saying! Watch out, watch out, watch out Don't, don't, don't, don't you tell me
Oh, don't tell me why you're leaving I don't wanna know No, don't tell me why you're leaving Just, just, just, just, just, just, just up and go
IF ONLY FOR THE MOMENT GIRL (Steve Perry, Randy Goodrum) I'm happy to just to see you here If only for the moment, girl Why do you seem so sincere Don't tell me you're unhappy, girl
Honey, you don't need nobody You've got another place to stay Oh, you don't need nobody Is it another sad mistake
I wish that we could fall again If only for the moment, girl It's not easy to pretend I see your eyes They show it, girl
No, you don't need nobody You've got another place to stay Oh, no you don't need nobody Is it another sad mistake Sad mistake, sad mistake
Oh, stay with me awhile Oh, if only for the moment girl Please, won't you lie to me Oh, if only for the moment, girl Stay, stay, stay Oh, if only for the moment, girl Won't you believe in your man Oh, if only for the moment, girl
Oh, if only for the moment, girl Oh, will you believe, believe in your man Oh, if only for the moment, girl
