If you wanna leave then just go
Cause I can't get no sun in your shadow
If you ain't gonna love me or fight me
Then I'm gonna turn the other cheek and go, go, go...

Cause I've been hangin on the telephone
Lines that you always told
Me and now I can't let go
I've been livin' off the last time
You warmed me with your words I'm
Tired and I'm getting cold
Cold...

If you wanna leave then just go
Cause I can't get no sun in your shadow
If you ain't gonna love me or fight me
Then I'm gonna turn the other cheek and go, go, go...

Turn the other cheek and go, go, go...

Every time I push you pull me
Just close enough to keep me here
So pull your anchor up and head to shore
Or sail away

If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
Then just go

Cause I've been hangin' on the telephone,
Lines that you always told
Me and now I can't let go
I've been livin' off the last time
You told me you would try but
Boy this is getting old
So old...

So if you wanna leave then just go
Cause I can't get no sun in your shadow
If you ain't gonna love me or fight me
Then I'm gonna turn the other cheek and go, go, go...

Turn the other cheek and go, go, go...

I'll be better off alone
Better off alone...
