Aretha Franklin
Never Leave You Again
[Intro]
Mmm, my darling, my darling
Ooh, darling

[Verse 1]
Now I know that you've been staying at home, baby
Yeah, all alone
And I've been working day and night, baby
(Just working day and night)
I know that you've been tired of hearing the same old song
(Baby, I don't really blame ya)
For feeling all that you feel

[Pre-Chorus]
It seems we've got a problem
I swear I'll compromise
I've been working really hard just to make it right
So I'm never gonna leave you again
I'll never leave you again
Ooh

[Chorus]
It's been a long long time since I've seen your smile
Since I felt your touch
Ooh, I miss you so much
I've been gone for so long
And I know I was wrong
So I'm never going to leave you again
I'll never going to leave you again
[Verse 2]
And sometimes I get caught up in things that I do
And boy, I never pay attention at time
(It passes so fast)
Although I call you on the phone
Honey, I get a thing
Only one thing about reality
I feel like a fool, and I do

[Pre-Chorus]
You could be spending time with somebody else
But instead you're still at home
All alone night and day
So I'm never going to leave you again
I'll never leave you again

[Bridge]
Ooo-hooo
Sha-bi-du-day, wee-woo-bi-du-du-woop-du-du-doo
Wa-di-du-du-du-dub-di-du-du oh oh
Zip-zipn-zip-du-du-zipn-zipn-dip-yeah yeah
Wab-web-wab-web-wa-waa-waaaa

[Outro]
I promise that I'll never leave ya
I hope you know I swear
And if you ever have a problem
Call my name and I'll be there
All I want is you to let me back into your arms
And I'm staying by your side
Give me a chance
Oh, it seems we've got a problem
I swear I'll compromise
I've been working day and night just to make it right, baby
Never going to leave you again
I'll never leave you again., oh, whoa whoa
Well, I'm never going to leave you again
I'll never leave you again, oh oh, yeah, yeah
I'm going to be right by your side, oh baby, yeah yeah
I ain't going nowhere, hey yeah, oh yeah
Dip-di-du-du-du-du-du
Dip-di-du-du-du-du-du
Dip-di-du-du-du-du-du
I ain't really going nowhere
