Don't Leave Me
Blackstreet Lyrics

No baby no baby no baby
No, no, no

If you take your love away from me
I'll go crazy, I'll go insane

No baby no baby no baby
No, no, no
No baby no baby no baby
No, no, no

You've got your problems baby
And I've got mine
Let's just spend it all by putting it together, yeah
When you say you love me it don't mean a thing
If you care, you'll be there, like you used to be, yeah
I'm searching for the words to make you realize
That I really, really want you to stay, oh
Tears of frustration I hold inside
But if you walk away
You'll make this grown man cry

Don't leave
Don't leave me girl
Please stay with me tonight
Don't leave me girl
Please stay with me tonight

Forget my pride girl, I beg you
You're my heart, you're my soul
You've got so much control
My love runs deep within the ocean and sea
But if you sail away
You'll take a center piece of me

Don't leave
Don't leave me girl
Please stay with me tonight
Don't leave me girl
Please stay with me tonight

(No, don't go)

Don't leave
Don't leave me girl
Please stay with me tonight
Don't leave me girl
Please stay with me tonight

Stay, stay, stay
Stay right here with me forever
Stay, stay, stay
Stay right here with me forever

If you take your love away from me
I'll go crazy, crazy, crazy, insane

If you take your love away from me
I'll go crazy, I'll go insane

If you take your love away from me
I'll go crazy, I'll go insane

Stay, stay, stay
Stay right here with me forever
Stay, stay, stay
Stay right here with me forever

No baby, no baby, no baby

This song has one of the best hooks of all time. The pain in their voices when they say "don't leave me girl" gets me every time. Powerful stuff.

Dante LAN-I-ER

@Last Days Oh yeah? I know about El Debarge. Didn't no this hook was derived from one of their songs.

Last Days

The hook in the song came from the a 80's song Dream by The Debarge (a Family Group)

Mike Randy

If you watch Unsung, you would see the common thread is that the radio stations started pushing gangster rap on the black community. Slowly they took away our sweet rhythm & blues and fun loving rap, then replaced it with mindless dribble. Then they try convince some of us that the dribble is actually good. Not me I never bought into it. We will see in the near future how the great music of the 60s, 70s, and 80s were sampled and respected by the artists of the 90s. There will be no need to sample the crap from 2000s. Seems like all the Black positive imaging we had going in the 90's was just too much for "SOME" so they are trying to dumb us down with horrible music, with even worse degrading lyrics. If something is truly garbage stop supporting just because the radio stations say it is good, they are nothing but paid puppets, in on the plot. Sorry for the rant, hate hearing everyone complain about where the good music went, but turn around and support the garbage.

I agree with everything you said. I have a long history in radio and currently TV. I’ve noticed the push toward what I consider porn rap. Hearing songs like this is a reminder of courting a person and being romantic or sensual without being explicit. They also dressed well for presentation. Maybe it was for show, but it’s what’s projected and has influence so I thought it was a positive thing.
