He left you home alone on another Friday night
So you come over cryin’ to me ‘bout your latest fight
That’s what friends are for, to give support and lend a shoulder
But just tonight I’ll speak my mind rather than console ya

I think you should leave him, if you need a reason
Well I got a million, but I’ll give you three
He takes you for granted, he don’t understand that
You’re the girl of everybody’s dreams
And I know you could do better, so baby why don’t you see?
I think that you should leave him for me

You know I’d never be the reason for your tear-stained pillowcase
And you’d never have to see mascara streamin’ down your face
I’ve watched you settle for second-best too long
And if you ask me, you should be movin’ on

I think you should leave him, if you need a reason
Well I got a million, but I’ll give you three
He takes you for granted, he don’t understand that
You’re the girl of everybody’s dreams
And I know you could do better, so baby why don’t you see?
I think that you should leave him for me

I’ve held your hand, watched you cry on the floor
Made every excuse in the book
You don’t need to live with this pain anymore
Just open your eyes and look

I think you should leave him, if you need a reason
Well I got a million, but I’ll give you three
He takes you for granted, he don’t understand that
You’re the girl of my dreams
And I know you could do better, so baby why don’t you see?
I think that you should leave him
Yeah I think that you should leave him
Baby why don’t you leave him for me?
