The Brand New Heavies - Stay Gone lyrics

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 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, they don't belong You can't just show up, use me, lie and abuse me This time baby - stay gone, you can stay gone I'm no longer falling apart 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' Puttin' your hands where you know they don't belong, no, no they don't belong You can't just show up, use me, lie and abuse me This time baby, you, you, you - you can stay gone (You can stay gone...) 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 dope Or the rough love, had enough of it - stay gone You can't be a no show, whem 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 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 Today is gonna be my day, find you a highway Hear me baby, stay gone - you can 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
