Leave Me Lonely
Macy Gray Ariana Grande Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You’re no good for me, darling
Yeah, you turn me away
Like I’m begging for a dollar
Danger, oh, how you hold me
I get a chill inside
And nothing frightens me, baby, oh
Is it love when we’ve given up before we tried?
Is it love when you stole my peace of mind?
Is it love when you cry, and cry and cry?
So when you walk out that door
Don’t you come back no more
My heart has had enough of the give and take
And as much as I want you to stay
You’re a dangerous love
And baby, you’re no good for me, darling
'Cause if you’re gonna love me and leave me hanging here
Then I’d rather you leave me lonely
Even though it hurts
You’re a dangerous love
Dangerous love
You’re no good for me, darling
Yeah, you turn me away
Like I’m begging for a dollar
Danger, oh, how you hold me
I get a chill inside
And nothing frightens me, baby, oh
When you walk out that door
Don’t you come back no more
My heart has had enough of the give and take
And as much as I want you to stay
You’re a dangerous love
Baby, you’re no good for me, darling
‘Cause if you’re gonna love me and leave me hanging here
Then I’d rather you leave, leave me lonely
Even though it hurts
Dangerous love, baby
Dangerous love
You’re no good for me, darling
Yeah, you turn me away
Like I’m begging for a dollar
Danger, oh, how you hold me
I get a chill inside
And nothing frightens me, baby, oh

You are not good for my well-being as a lover.
Yeah, you turn me away / Like I’m begging for a dollar
You reject me with no care or concern, like I am insignificant.
Danger, oh, how you hold me / I get a chill inside / And nothing frightens me, baby, oh
Despite the warning signs, I am captivated by you and yet unfazed by the danger you possess.
Is it love when so easily said goodbye?

And as much as I want you to stay
Even though I desire your presence, I know it is not good for me.
'Cause if you’re gonna love me and leave me hanging here / Then I’d rather you leave me lonely
If you are only going to hurt me by loving me and then leaving me, then I would rather be alone.
Even though it hurts / You’re a dangerous love
Despite the pain, I acknowledge that you are a hazardous kind of love.

Amor perigoso
Você não é bom para mim, querido
Sim, você me afasta
Como se eu estivesse implorando por um dólar
Perigo
Oh, o jeito como você me abraça
Sinto arrepios por dentro
E nada me assusta, amor, oh
[Ariana Grande]
É amor
Quando foi tão fácil dizer adeus?
É amor
Quando desistimos mesmo antes de tentar?
É amor
Quando você roubou minha paz de espírito?
É amor
Quando você chora, chora e chora?
Então, quando você sair por aquela porta
Não volte nunca mais
Meu coração já se cansou dessa coisa de dar e tomar
E por mais que eu queira que você fique
Você é um amor perigoso
Talvez você não seja bom para mim, querido
Porque se você vai me amar
E me deixar esperando aqui
Então eu prefiro que você me deixe sozinha
Mesmo que isso doa
Você é um amor perigoso
[Macy Gray]
Amor perigoso
