Don’t leave me in all this pain
Don’t leave me out in the rain
Come back and bring back my smile
Come and take these tears away
I need your arms to hold me now
The nights are so unkind
Bring back those nights when I held you beside me

Un-break my heart
Say you’ll love me again
Undo this hurt you caused
When you walked out the door
And walked outta my life
Un-cry these tears
I cried so many nights
Un-break my heart
My heart

Take back that sad word good-bye
Bring back the joy to my life
Don’t leave me here with these tears
Come and kiss this pain away
I can’t forget the day you left
Time is so unkind
And life is so cruel without you here beside me

Don’t leave me in all this pain
Don’t leave me out in the rain
Bring back the nights when I held you beside me

Un-break my heart
Come back and say you love me
Un-break my heart
Sweet darlin’
Without you I just can’t go on
Can’t go on

Lagu yang dilantunkan sama Tony Braxton ini emang kedengeran agak cengeng. tapi menurut gue, ini lagu jauh lebih jujur dibanding para pelaku kehidupan ini. jujur dan-mungkin-menyakitkan. Karena itulah gue jadi suka banget sama ni lagu. gue menyadari, ya itulah hidup. seringkali jujur itu menyakitkan. hm….
