Love Me Or Leave Me

Love Me Or Leave Me

music by Walter Donaldson (under Kahn)
lyric by Gus Kahn (top)

Love me or leave me or let me be lonely,

You won't believe me but I love you only.

I'd rather be lonely than happy with somebody new.

Some find the night time the right time for kissing.

Night time is my time for just reminiscing.

Regretting instead of forgetting with somebody else.

There'll be no one unless that someone is you, you, you.

I intend to be independently true, true, true.

I want your love but I don't want to borrow,

To have it today and to give back tomorrow.

My love is your love and yours is for somebody else...
