You Can Take Me Or You Can Leave Me

You can take me, or you can leave me,

But I'd rather that you left me

because I don't think I love you any more.

Every day you tease me, torment me and grieve me

So I'd rather that you left me;

pack your bag and go straight out that door.

Our love was old and wrinkling, but

still I had no inkling

that you could be so deceitful and unkind.

Well, they say that love is blind,

just go, please, please leave me

but make sure you leave the front door key behind.

Leave... Go out into the rain

and then perhaps, for me,

some time soon the sun will shine again.
