"Every Time You Leave" lyrics - THE BLACK KEYS

Everytime you walk away
I wonder if I'm going down today
Under the ground, where the hounds of hell are patiently waiting
Down on my knees, and I start to pray
Seems I don't have nothing good to say
Is it a sin to love a sinner, who's gonna save me?

[Chorus:]
Everytime you leave me
You know I'm gonna lose my ways
If you don't believe me
Look at how I'm living today
Everytime you leave
Everything I need goes away

Tell me what I want to believe
A wing and a prayer ain't nothin' to me
How can you say you wanted love
But then you fake it
It's only the devil on my mind
Making me leave myself behind
I know I've been blind, but I see the light
And I'm stoned and naked

[Chorus:]
Everytime you leave me
You know I'm gonna lose my ways
If you don't believe me
Look at how I'm living today
Everytime you leave
Everything I need goes away

[Bridge:]
Tried living without you
Died thinking about you
Why wouldn't you want to, want me too
One day I'll be crying
Two days, and I'm dying
Next day I'll be tryin' to look for you

[Chorus:]
Everytime you leave me
You know I'm gonna lose my ways
If you don't believe me
Look at how I'm living today
Everytime you leave
Everything I need goes away
