Leave me Alone, Just Leave me Alone
A salute to Ruby Red Dress

A hard-grieving widow
Is not lonely for new love
She is missing her husband
Who is in heaven above
She's not on the make
So keep far away
I've tried to be polite
But now it's time to say
What Helen Reddy sang best
Remember what she said
in the hit Ruby Red Dress
Leave me alone, won't you leave me alone,
That's the message for you
Please leave me alone, just leave me alone
Am I getting through?
I mourn the man who gave me love
I don't need another in my bed
He's the only one I'm thinking of
Can't you get this through your head?
I'm not looking for companionship or sex
I desire the time to grieve my loss
Please listen to Helen Reddy
And allow me to bear my cross
I'm ok without a man
I want to be on my own
Find yourself another woman
Please just leave me alone
Don't sit next to me in church
Leave me alone, just leave me, leave me
Don't send messages or Facebook pokes
I want to live romance-free
I'm not the merry widow
Find someone else to be your own
My answer to you is no
So, please won't you leave me alone!
