[Chorus: All]
Don't leave me 'cause you need me
I never wanna be without you
Don't leave me 'cause you need me
I never wanna be without you

[Verse 1: AJ]
I woke up this mornin'
From a dream
That you were sayin' goodbye
We had simple argument
But not enough to keep out
Each other's lives

[Pre-Chorus: Brian, AJ & Nick]
I wanna be happy
But I can't be happy
If I can't be with you
'Cause you're my baby
My sweet honey
And no other girl will do

[Chorus: All & AJ]
Don't leave me 'cause you need me
I never wanna be without you
Don't leave me 'cause you need me
I never wanna be without you
(I never wanna be without you)

[Verse 2: AJ]
I can't seem to figure out
Just what went wrong with us
You must have thought I was selfish
But everything I did, I did for us

[Pre-Chorus: Brian, AJ & Nick]
I wanna be happy
But I can't be happy
If I can't be with you
'Cause you're my baby (my baby)
My sweet honey (honey)
And no other girl will do

[Chorus: All & Brian]
Don't leave me 'cause you need me
(Baby don't go)
I never wanna be without you
(Don't want you leaving)
Don't leave me 'cause you need me
I never wanna be without..
I never wanna be without you

[Bridge: Nick]
I can't eat or even sleep
'Til I have you
Back inside my world
My life won't be complete
Unless you stay my girl

[Chorus: All, Brian & AJ]
Don't leave me 'cause you need me
I never wanna be without you
(I don't want you leaving)
Don't leave me 'cause you need me
(Don't you leave)
I never wanna be without you

[Interlude: AJ]
Come on, girl, let me break it down

[Break: All]
Don't leave me girl
Don't leave me, don't go
Don't leave me girl
Don't leave me, don't go
Don't leave me girl
Don't leave me, don't go
Don't leave me girl
Don't leave me, ooh (don't leave)
Don't leave me girl
Don't leave me, don't go
Don't leave me girl
Don't leave me, ooh (don't leave)

[Chorus: All & Brian]
Don't leave me (I don't wanna let you go)
'Cause you need me (I don't wanna be alone)
I never wanna be without you
(I never wanna be alone)
Don't leave me 'cause you need me
I never wanna be without you
Don't leave...

[Reprise: All]
Don't leave me girl
Don't leave me, don't go
Don't leave me girl
Don't leave me, don't go
Don't leave me girl
Don't leave me, don't go
Don't leave me girl
Don't leave me, ooh (don't leave)
Don't leave me girl
Don't leave me, don't go
Don't leave me girl
Don't leave me, ooh (don't leave)

Backstreet Boys

The Backstreet Boys are the most successful boy band in history, having sold over 130 million records worldwide, and with their first nine albums reaching the top 10 on the Billboard 200. Florida natives A. J. McLean, Howie Dorough, and Nick Carter, along with Kentucky transplant Kevin Richardson, were joined in a band once they attended Lou Pearlman’s auditions for a vocal group in 1992, with the group being completed by Kevin’s cousin Brian Litrell. Once took under the wing of Swedish producer Max Martin in 1995, the stage was set for global domination, attracting the lust of women and the anger of men. While the fad died down and Kevin even left for a while, the band never officially took a break or such.
