Not Leaving You Tonight Lyrics


(LL Cool J)
Farmers BoulevardI'll be by your side when the chips are down
I know you had some problems but I'm here now
You'll never be alone long as I'm around
Good hearts don't belong in the lost and found
So I pick up the pieces, erase your frown
And I show my true colors when we paint the town
I hate to hear you cry, I don't like the sound
So my love is turned up, sheets get turned down
I know it hurts now, the drama's the worst now
It's fourth and a hundred but love's a first down
A quarterback to come back right now
When a hail Mary works, the world is like wow
You down for the count, I ain't having it baby
They can all go to hell, I know they callin me crazy
But you're my sunshine when the world gets shady
A toast to the first ladyChorus
(Fitz and Noelle)

You shouldn't be (LL: You shouldn't be alone) alone (LL: nah)
I'm not leaving you tonight
Love, you know I'm right here
I'm not leaving you tonight
(LL: Fitz & the Tantrums, huh?)
No way, baby
(LL: That's right)
I'm not leaving you tonight
(LL: Uh, uh)
No way, baby
I'm not leaving you, not leaving you tonight(LL)
Farmers BoulevardTurn ya back on it and the sun still shines
Grapes get old and they turn into wine
The deeper the roots, the stronger the vines
These lines on my face just a sign of the times
You could cry on my shoulder if you're so inclined
I used to be a Casanova in the lunchroom line
There is more important things occupying my mind
Like being there for you, breathing the air for you
Keep trust false and truth to dare for you
The weight of the world I'm prepared to bear for you
The haters get cynical and call you spoiled
Not knowing 'bout the drama in which you're embroiled
The numerous pit falls, the tussle and the toil
The Farmers taught me to put seeds in the soil
And here comes the harvest, this part's the hardest
I'm still here in darknessChorus
(Fitz and Noelle)
You shouldn't be (LL: I'm still here, baby) alone
I'm not leaving you tonight (LL: And you shouldn't be alone)
Love, you know (LL: Uh,uh) I'm right here
I'm not leaving you tonight
(LL: Nah, nah)
No way (LL: Yeah), baby
I'm not leaving you tonight
(LL: Uh)
No way, baby
I'm not leaving you, not leaving you tonightBridge
(LL) When I'm alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall
And in the back of my mind I hear my conscience call
When I'm alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall
And in the back of my mind I hear my conscience callChorus
(Fitz and Noelle)
You shouldn't be (LL: I'm still here, baby) alone
I'm not leaving you tonight (LL: And you shouldn't be alone)
Love, you know (LL: Uh,uh) I'm right here
I'm not leaving you tonight
(LL: Nah, nah)
No way (LL: Yeah), baby
I'm not leaving you tonight
(LL: Uh)
No way, baby
I'm not leaving you, not leaving you tonight(LL)
