Leave Lyrics

Nobody knows, nobody sees
That what you can do
We your displeased
which is most of the time
Not me
Yeah hear, my plea, Leave
Go away, to stay
Get out of my life
You've been my wife
I'll be to chose
To be
Yeah hear, my plea, Leave

You will be sorry
When you'll wake up tomorrow
And you leave a lover
Won't leave a love
You won't accept the fact
That I'm not ready for the death above
Forever love
By the look, on your face
Is that you're make it
To another place
I'll see you around
My sweet
Won't you please hear, my plea, Leave

The lyrics are wrong in some places – "You AIN'T my wife" and "I'm not ready FOR THE STEP ABOVE." So... she is always displeased (angry? nagging? pushing to get married?) and he most definitely is NOT. Sounds like it might have been written in SS's Greenwich Village days when he was 19 or 20.

Wow, the lead guitar sounds a lot like the lead guitar in "I Heard Her Call My Name" by The Velvet Underground. That crazy, manic, coked up sound. I'm guessing Neil Young played it.

@Skillstad Can't always assume; SS was already wild on electric at this point.
