Don't Leave Me Now Lyrics

Don't leave me now
I must confess
Haven't been the worst
Haven't been the best
Since you came

Don't take me now
I must confess
Found the word digress
And made it a home

Don't leave me now
I must confess
Haven't been the worst
Haven't been the best
Since you came

It's all the same
It's all the same

Don't take me now
I must confess
Found the wor(d digress
And made it a home

It's all the same
It's all the same

Don't come try to find me now
I must confess
Holes in the plot rearrange themselves
with all the rest

Holes in the story
Holes in myself x 3

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.

Love this and wish I could told something like that to my lover at the end. Though I doubt. I've always thought it was a break up / heartbroken song. English isn't my mother tongue and while posting the lyrics (btw, a verse's missing, if someone knows...), I read a review where the reporter was talking about a death song. Does it make sense to any of you ? Obviously, there're some verses that cold be understood this way. I'm more for the heartbroken version but I like the idea of the song being ambigous.

@ Wood : Thanks ! @ Germone : Still "haven't been the worse" makes sense in a break up song. At least to me ! ;-)

To me this makes more sense as a song about death, cause i thought the "haven't been the worst" wouldn't make sense if they were breaking up. but now it makes sense and it sounds like he is rethinking his behaviour and how careless he was not appreciating the time they had together so he wants the person not to die so he has a second chance. now this song makes me cry.
