lyrics

Don’t leave me here sitting all alone
I gotta leave this place, yeah, I gotta go
I’ll learn some self respect somewhere down the road
Whoa oh, whoa oh, back up, back up now
Every few minutes I check my phone
I’m looking for your number but you never called
I wonder if I’ve ever been this low
Whoa oh, whoa oh, back down, back down now

Hey, don’t leave me on the backburner
Hey, don’t leave me on the backburner
Hey, don’t leave me on the backburner
Hey, don’t leave me on the backburner

I've got a new rhythm it's four on the floor
I found it on the ground just outside your door
Smile on my face, yeah, I've settled the score
Whoa oh, whoa oh, back up, back up now
All is fair in love and war
I didn't really think I'd take it this far
Wonder if I've ever been this low
Whoa oh, whoa oh, back down, back down now

Hey, don’t leave me on the backburner
Hey, don’t leave me on the backburner
Hey, don’t leave me on the backburner
Hey, don’t leave me on the backburner

I'm boiling over, without your attention
I'm boiling over, complete comprehension
I'm boiling over, without mention
Of my feelings for you

Hey, don’t leave me on the backburner
Hey, don’t leave me on the backburner
Hey, don’t leave me on the backburner
Hey, don’t leave me on the backburner
