Leave It Alone

from Most Likely To​.​.​. by Ashley Riley

lyrics

Yes I said I was ready
I said I could take it
I said it was time

Now you've just gotta let me
You've just gotta listen
And fall into line

Oh you say it's better when you leave it alone
It's much better just leave it alone
And kiss me goodbye

Cuz I know you don't think it's right
I'm asking you to fight
Or simply to try
Cuz I've been watching from the sidelines
Watching all the lights dim
Where sparks used to fly

Oh you say it's better when you leave it alone
It's much better just leave it alone
And kiss me goodbye

Yes I promised forever
I told you I'd never
Leave or lie

Now we're still together
A little under the weather
And you're asking me why

Oh you say it's better when you leave it alone
It's much better just leave it alone
Well make up your mind

Cuz I know you don't think it's right
I'm asking you to fight
Or simply to try
Cuz I've been watching from the sidelines
Watching all the lights dim
Where sparks used to fly

Oh you say it's better when you leave it alone
It's much better just leave it alone
And I've made up my mind

Yes I said I was ready
I said I could take it
I said it was time

Yeah I promised forever
I told you I'd never
And it wasn't a lie
It wasn't a lie
