Love Me or Leave Me

Love Me or Leave Me - Ruth Etting

This affair is killin' me

I can't stand uncertainly

Tell me now I've got to know

Whether you want me to stay or to go

Love me or leave me

Or let me be lonely

You won't believe me I love you only

I'd rather be lonely

Then happy with someone else

You might find the night time

The right time for kissin'

But night time is my time

For just reminiscin'

Regrettin' instead of forgettin'

With somebody else

There'll be no one

Unless that someone is you

I intend to be independently blue

I want your love

But I don't want to borrow

To have it today to give it back tomorrow

My love is your love

There's no love for nobody else

Love me or leave me

Or let me be lonely

You won't believe me I love you only

I'd rather be lonely

Then happy with someone else

You might find the night time

The right time for kissin'

But night time is my time

For just reminiscin'

Regrettin' instead of forgettin'

With somebody else

There'll be no one

Unless that someone is you

I intend to be independently blue

I want your love

But I don't want to borrow

To have it today to give it back tomorrow

But I don't want to borrow

To share with someboby else
