A.lo ft. DISL Automatic Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Girl, don't pull the rug from under my feet
Don't do it baby
Don't leave, don't leave me so
I'm talking in my sleep
This could be the start of a nightmare
Waking up and not finding you there
Oh, baby
Girl, don't leave me so I'm pacing the floor
Don't do it baby
'Cause that's, that's what I'll do
If you close the door, yeah
Maybe I've been too hung up on myself
But don't change me by putting my heart on a shelf
It would be more than I could stand, listen baby
Why you wanna leave me? Why you wanna go?
I promise not to never hurt you, no more
Please don't leave me, please don't go
It's causin' my heart to ache, causin' it to break
We, we've still got a love
Got of love to give, yeah
So turn around, baby, turn around
While there's a lot of life to live
Leavin' me would ruin all of my plans
It would be like tying the both of my hands
And that is more baby than I could stand, yeah
Why you wanna leave me? Why you wanna go?
I promise not, never hurt you, no more
Please don't leave me, please don't go
I promise not, never, never hurt you, no more
Please don't leave me, please don't go
I promise not, never hurt you, no more
Please don't leave me, please don't go
I promise not, never hurt you, no more
Please don't go, baby, please don't leave
I never, never, I never, never hurt you, no more
