↓ LYRICS ↓

Don't leave me this way
I can't survive
I can't stay alive
Without your love, no baby

Don't leave me this way
I can't exist
I will surely miss your tender kiss
So don't leave me this way

Aww, baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you
So come on down and do what you've got to do
You started this fire down in my soul
Now can't you see it's burning out of control?
So come on down and satisfy the need in me
'Cause only your good loving can set me free

Don't leave me this way
I don't understand how I'm at your command
So baby please, so don't you leave me this way

Aww, baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you
So come on down and do what you've got to do
You started this fire down in my soul
Now can't you see it's burning out of control?
So come on down and satisfy the need in me
'Cause only your good loving can set me free
Set me free, set me free, set me free, set me free, set me free

Come satisfy me, come satisfy me
Don't you leave me this way
No, no
No, no
No, baby don't you go

Don't leave me this way
I can't exist
I will surely miss your tender kiss
So don't leave me this way

Aww, baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you
So come on down and do what you've got to do
You started this fire down in my soul
Now can't you see it's burning out of control?
So come on down and satisfy the need in me
'Cause only your good loving can set me free
Set me free, set me free, set me free, set me free, set me free

(Don't leave me this way)
Don't you know by now?
Don't you know by now?
I'm losing control...

This song came out a couple of months after I met my husband in 1986. We were together for34 yrs until I lost him in 2020 to pancreatic cancer at 58 yrs old. This song takes me back there. I loved you then Gareth, I love you now, I always will. He didn't want to leave me this way. Miss you Gar, miss you love ❤️❤️

I'm 68 and frankly, I don't give a funk if he's gay or not. To me Jimmy is, and has always been, just a formidable artist and singer. What a voice! What a professional! Cheers to all from South Africa.

[CarolP-uk]

The music of the 80’s will always be the best ❤

[IvanDP]

Even after all these years, still one of the best musical duets ever

[invinvis]

Who is still here in 2024?!? (I am! And love this song!)

[theexmann]

Dancing all night long without a worry in the world! I was in my 20s and had an amazing time all during the 80s. We didn't realize how lucky we were back then. Only decades later did I truly understand how unique and special that time was in my life. Wonderful memories!

[jonathandeleon]

Loving this song 👍 i will never forget the 90s and 80s i loved those times but im enjoying a new year! Love the song 😊

[Gavinlovesfishing]

I met Richard Coles a few weeks back (the guy playing the piano and 1 half of the Communards) amazing guy and so interesting. Even though I was only young in the 80's I thanked him for helping shape the 1980s and for this song! 😊

[jwt]

This guy's voice was so unique and underrated in the pop world. This song is gets you going no matter what mood you are in!

[markcross]

Its not about his sexuality. I grew up with his songs and they shaped my life and meant so much to me while growing up. I still cant get enough. Thank you JS.

[robinmcphail]

Best cover ever! A dead man would tap his toes!

[grimmshadyyt]

my mum died in 91' she was 18 this was her favourite song . rip vikkie

[jeanbaptistejuan]

I love the energy between the two singers. They're having the time of their lives, and it's a beautiful duet. This song gives me a real buzz!

[corinaalamoreanu]

The 80's were the best years, such a good music and unique, that makes you dance and feel good

[IndyCopyWriter]

I was an American student in the UK when this song came out and immediately fell in love with it.

[TheNerdStorm]

my father played this album endlessly on road trips in Texas... after he passed away, I had to get my hands on the Communards albums, and I still live Jimmy, Cheers from the USA!!

[VanessaDiRenzo]

All 80s music is amazing. This song is pure nostalgia. Incredible ❤

[Benratbag]

Although I’m a 90s kid, but Jimmy Somerville to me is truly one of the most bravest gifted music artists for his time with a fantastic majestic voice as the lead singer both in Bronski Beat and The Communards. ‘Don’t Leave Me This Way’ is one of my favourite 80s songs.

[paulis]

2023 & still as fresh as the day they recoded it.
Jimmy is one phenomenal singer.

[zac]

80's will always be the best decade of music. You can never get over it.
Edit: 70's was best for Rock music.
