Baby I'm Leavin' You Lyrics

You know that my heart is true
And I never lie to you
We try each and everyday
Still there's something in the way

Chorus:
I like moonlight, simple things
Now you want a diamond ring
I got news for you
Baby I'm leaving you

We both want a love that last
Girl you're moving away too fast
I live for your fantasy
A real love is what I need

Repeat Chorus:

Let me tell you girl
I hear what you say, I see what you're doing girl
I don't wanna play
We're livin' in two different worlds

Tell me girl it ain't true
The rumors that I hear about you
About all the boys you knew before
Who come and go right out your door

Repeat Chorus:

Gone
I got news for you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
