Stay Gone

Stay Gone - The Brand New Heavies

Written by：D. LAMBERT/J. Kincaid

No you cannot stay for the night

I'm not your anytime you want me delight

I've been healing both my body and mind

Found the courage that can free me this time

We're playin' by a new set of rules

Baby these were not designed for some fool

Now see I've taken all that I'm gonna take

It's the rest of my life that's at stake

So don't you come around drinkin' high

And thinkin'

I'm gonna lay down cause you're wrong

You're so wrong

I'm through with letting you walk in do the talkin'

Puttin' your hands where they don't belong

In law they don't belong

You can't just show me use me lie and abuse me

This time baby stay gone you can stay gone

I'm no longer falling apart

You see I finally got you out of my heart

And if I ever think of taking you back

You'll remind me how I feel about that

So don't you come around drinkin' high and thinkin'

I'm gonna lay down

Cause you're wrong oh yeah damn wrong

I'm through with letting you walk in do the talkin'

And puttin' your hands

Where you know they don't belong

No no they don't belong

You can't just show me use me lie and abuse me

This time baby you you you you you can stay gone

You can stay gone

Gone gone gone baby

I don't need the smooth talk on a good night

Doin' just fine doin' alright stay gone

I don't need you no

I don't need the false hope or the bad **

Or the rough love had enough of it stay gone

You can't be a no show when I'm real low

It's a no blow it's a no go stay gone stay gone gone

So don't you come around drinkin' sad and steamin'

Baby let me tell you

I won't work this time

It ain't gonna work no

I'm tired of letting you hurt me

Scream and curse me

Baby that pain is more than you're worth

More than you're worth

Today is gonna be my day find you a highway

Hear me baby stay gone

Stay stay stay stay gone

Stay gone stay gone stay gone

You can stay out there somewhere

I don't care I don't care stay gone

You don't believe it

You can take a slow boat or a long road

To a fast plane to a slow train

Stay gone stay gone you can stay gone

Stay gone stay gone

I don't need you no no no no stay gone
