[Intro]
I can feel no sense of measure
No illusions as we take
Refuge in young man's pleasure
Breaking down the dreams we make
Real
[Verse 1]
One down one to go
Another town and one more show
Downtown they're giving away
But she never came back
[Verse 2]
No phone can take your place
You know what I mean
We have the same intrigue
As a court of kings
[Chorus 1]
Ah... leave it
Ah... leave it
[Verse 3]
Two down there you go
MacArthur Park in the driving snow
Uptown they're digging it out
Better lay your claim
[Verse 4]
Get home you're not alone
You just broke out of the danger zone
Be there to show your face
On another dreamy day
[Chorus 1]
Ah... leave it
Ah... leave it
(Do do do...)
[Chorus 2]
(Ah...) Goodbye goodbye goodbye bad
(...leave it) Hello hello heaven
(Ah...) Goodbye goodbye goodbye bad
(...leave it) Hello hello heaven
[Bridge]
I can feel no sense of measure
No illusions as we take
Refuge in young man's pleasure
Breaking down the dreams we make
Real
[Chorus 1]
Ah... leave it
Ah... leave it
[Chorus 2]
(Ah...) Goodbye goodbye goodbye bad
(...leave it) Hello hello heaven
(Ah...) Goodbye goodbye goodbye bad
(...leave it) Hello hello heaven
[Outro]
(Ah...)
One down one to go
Another town and one more show
(...leave it)
(Ah...)
One down one to go
Another town and one more show
Leave it!
I can feel no sense of measure
No illusions as we take
Refuge in young man's pleasure
Breaking down the dreams we make
Real
[Verse 1]
One down one to go
Another town and one more show
Downtown they're giving away
But she never came back
[Verse 2]
No phone can take your place
You know what I mean
We have the same intrigue
As a court of kings
[Chorus 1]
Ah... leave it
Ah... leave it
[Verse 3]
Two down there you go
MacArthur Park in the driving snow
Uptown they're digging it out
Better lay your claim
[Verse 4]
Get home you're not alone
You just broke out of the danger zone
Be there to show your face
On another dreamy day
[Chorus 1]
Ah... leave it
Ah... leave it
(Do do do...)
[Chorus 2]
(Ah...) Goodbye goodbye goodbye bad
(...leave it) Hello hello heaven
(Ah...) Goodbye goodbye goodbye bad
(...leave it) Hello hello heaven
[Bridge]
I can feel no sense of measure

Refuge in young man's pleasure
Breaking down the dreams we make

Ah... leave it
Ah... leave it
[Chorus 2]
(Ah...) Goodbye goodbye goodbye bad
(...leave it) Hello hello heaven
(Ah...) Goodbye goodbye goodbye bad
(...leave it) Hello hello heaven
[Outro]
(Ah...)
One down one to go
Another town and one more show
(...leave it)
(Ah...)
One down one to go
Another town and one more show
Leave it!
