Love Me Or Leave Me Lyrics - Perry Como

[Chorus] 

Love me or leave me an' let me be lonely 

You won't believe me but I love you only! 

I'd rather be lonely 

Than happy with somebody else! 

You might find the night time 

The right time for kissin' 

But night time is my time 

For just reminiscing! 

Regretting instead of forgetting 

With somebody else! (Regretting instead of forgetting!) 

There'll be no one unless 

That someone is you! 

I intend to be 

Independently blue! 

I want your love 

But I don't want to borrow 

To have it today 

An' give back tomorrow! 

For my love is your love 

There's no love for nobody else! 

Love me or leave me an' let me be lonely! 

Won't you believe me that I love you only! 

Oh, would rather be lonely 

Than happy with somebody else! 

You might find the night time 

The right time for kissin' 

Night time is my time 

For reminiscing! 

Regretting instead of forgetting 

With somebody else! 

And there'll be no one unless 

That someone is you, you, you! 

I intend to be 

Independently 

Independently blue! 

I want your love 

I don't want to borrow 

To have it today 

Give back tomorrow! 

For my love is your love 

There's no love for nobody else! 

Love me or leave me 

And let me be lonely, baby! 

You're drivin' me wild! 

I'd rather be lonely 

Than happy with somebody else!
