Only When You Leave Songtext
von Spandau Ballet

Laying in the afterglow
I only want to learn what you know
But now you′re leaving
How many hearts must you break?
Well, how many calls must I make?

But now, you're leaving
In this world, all that I choose has come unbearable
But love is in your touch
Ooh, it′s killing me so much

Only when you leave
I'll need to love you
And when the action has all gone
I'm just a little fool enough to need you
A fool enough too long
Only when you leave, you′ll leave in danger
I′ll make sure that you pay
So give a little passion to a stranger

And take this soul away


I only want to make this things last
So, how could this have gone so fast

And now you're leaving
How many times must I learn
It′s only when you've gone that I burn
And now you′re leavin'

In the end, all that is left has come unbearable
It′s hard to change your mind
So, leave it all behind

Only when you leave
I'll need to love you
And when the action has all gone
I'm just a little fool enough to need you
A fool enough too long

Only when you leave, you′ll leave in danger

Oh, I′ll make sure that you pay
So give a little passion to a stranger
And take this soul away


Laying in the afterglow
I only want to learn what you know, ooh
But now, you're leaving
How many hearts must you break?
How many calls must I make?

But now, you′re leaving
In this world all that I choose has come unbearable
But love is in your touch
Ooh, it's killing me so much

Only when you leave
I′ll need to love you
And when the action has all gone
I'm just a little fool enough to need you
A fool enough too long

Only when you leave, you′ll leave in danger
Ooh, I'll make sure that you pay
So, give a little passion to a stranger
And take this soul away
No, no-no, no

Only when you leave, you'll leave in danger
Ooh, I′ll make sure that you pay
So, give a little passion to a stranger
And take this soul away

I′m just a fool enough to need you
Fool enough too long
Only when you leave, you'll leave in danger
