Andrew Gold
Leave Her Alone
[Verse 1]
Just because there's a chip on your shoulder
It doesn't mean it matters to me
But there's something you think you'll never get over
You're gonna have to prove it to me
If you think of yourself as always alone
That's exactly what you'll be
But if it's loneliness you want to overcome
Sooner or later you're gonna have to trust somebody

[Verse 2]
You see the way it works is a matter of taste
You can live any way you want
If you're waiting for someone to let themselves in
You may have to wait too long
You just hide your heart, it's such a waste of time
More than you will ever know
So let it fall apart and step on over the line
Sooner or later you're gonna have to trust somebody

Hit me!

[Verse 3]
There's a moon on the rise and the sun [?]
You're slippin' down behind the hill
With a house that hides a lonely woman inside
With too much time to kill
She just hides her heart, it's such a waste of time
More than she will ever know
Don't let it fall apart, oh, step on over the line
Sooner or later (Sooner or later)
Sooner or later you're gonna have to trust somebody!
