Don't Leave Me Alone
Amy Sky Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Walking down by the riverside
I see the seagulls wheel and dive
And if they don?t like what they find
They just fly away

When I look into your eyes
I can see you too would fly
Baby there's a lot of sky
And not all of it is grey
Oh we'll never find out
If we just walk away

Don't leave me alone
Oh stay with me
Don't leave me alone
Oh stay with me
Don't leave me alone

Wasn't it just yesterday
We thought our love was here to stay
We danced to music our hearts played
How did the magic fade
Oh when old dreams die then
New ones take their place

Don't leave me alone
Oh stay with me
Don't leave me alone
Please stay with me
Don't leave me alone

Oh when old dreams die then
New ones take their place
Oh but we'll never know
If we just walk away

Don't leave me alone
Oh stay with me
Don't leave me alone
Please stay, stay with me
Don't leave me alone
Stay, stay with me
Don't leave me alone




Oh stay with me
Don't leave me alone

Overall Meaning

The song "Don't Leave Me Alone" by Amy Sky is a beautifully crafted ballad that speaks about the challenges faced in a relationship when things start to fall apart. The first verse talks about the seagulls flying away when they don't find what they are looking for, making us wonder if we'd do the same or stick around and try to make things better. The second verse reminisces about the good times shared in the past, where the couple danced to music their hearts played. However, now the magic seems to have faded, and they're left to wonder what went wrong. The chorus repeatedly begs the significant other not to leave, ending with the line "Please stay with me," conveying the sense of desperation and longing.


The song is a reflection of the complex emotions felt when a relationship starts to break down. Amy Sky's vulnerability in her voice along with the perfectly crafted lyrics create an introspective and emotional atmosphere. The message of the song is clear - relationships require effort and communication, and simply walking away is not the solution. The phrase "Oh when old dreams die then new ones take their place" portrays the sentiment that when things go wrong, there's always hope for something new and better if we make an effort.
