“Don’t Turn Your Back on Me”

Baby I’ll stand here with you and say what I gotta say.
I will stand right here with you and say what I gotta say.
You’re the one I’m talkin to. Don’t toss your head away

Don’t lemme see. Don’t lemme see. Don’t you turn your back
Don’t lemme feel. Don’t lemme feel. Don’t you turn your back.
Said you wouldn’t say unless I ask - but, I’m scared to ask about that

I sure with you’d put some words behind your tone.
I sure with you’d put some words behind your tone.
It’s okay to say what you’re thinkin, ’cause we’re all alone.
Said you wouldn’t say unless I ask - but, I’m scared to ask about that.

i just can’t do this i won’t go through this,
i just can’t do it i just won’t do it
don’t turn your back on me

I’ll stop here, shed tears and cry right on the spot
said I’ll stop here, shed tears and cry here right on the spot
and what have you got? you turn your back, thats what i thought.

While sorting through some old things, I found a copy of something I had completely forgotten that I had written. Last year, during a music appreciation class, we were assigned a project where I chose to write blues lyrics. I don’t know ho wwell they stand up against lyrics by real blues musicians, but it was an interesting composition exercize anyway.
