If you wanna leave then just go
Cause I cant get no sun in your shadow
If you aint gonna love me or fight me
Then I'm gonna turn the other cheek and go
Go, go, go

Cause I've been hangin on the telephone,
Lines that you always told me
Now I cant let go
I've been livin' off the last time
You warmed me with your words
But now I'm tired and I'm getting cold
So cold

If you wanna leave then just go
Cause I cant get no sun in your shadow
If you aint gonna love me or fight me
Then I'm gonna turn the other cheek and go
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... Then just go

Cause I've been hangin on the telephone lines
That you always told me
Now I cant let go
I've been livin'off the last time
You told me you would try
But boy this is getting old
So old

If you wanna leave then just go
Cause I cant get no sun in your shadow
If you aint 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'm better off alone
Better off alone
