Come back and finish what you started
Come back and finish what you started
And don't leave me hanging on
Come back and finish what you started
And don't leave me hanging on, no

You planted seeds of love in my heart
With all the tender words you said at the start
But love is something you shouldn't begin
If you're not gonna see it through to the end

Come back and finish what you started
Oh, and don't leave me hanging on (Hanging on, hanging on)
Mmm, come back and finish what you started
And don't leave me hanging on (Hanging on, hanging on)

A taste of honey is a dangerous thing
After it's gone, the memories cling
Just like the promise I heard you repeat
That you left undone and incomplete

Come back and finish what you started
Oooh, and don't leave me hanging on (Hanging on, hanging on)
Oooh, come back and finish what you started
And don't leave me hanging on (Hanging on, hanging on)

(Baby, come back, ooohooohooo) Don't leave me
(Baby, come back, come back) Don't you know my loving?
(Baby, come back, ooohooohooo) Mmm-mmm
(Baby, come back, come back!)

Come back and finish what you started
Don't leave me hanging on (Hanging on, hanging on)
Come back and finish what you started
Ooohooo, don't leave me hanging on (Hanging on, hanging on)

A taste of honey is a dangerous thing
After it's gone, the memories cling
Just like the promise I heard you repeat
That you left undone and incomplete

Come back and finish what you started
Oooh, and don't leave me hanging on (Hanging on, hanging on)
Come back and finish what you started
And don't leave me hanging on (Hanging on, hanging on)

Come back and finish what you started
And don't leave me hanging on (Hanging on, hanging on)
Come back and finish what you started
And don't leave me hanging on (Hanging on, hanging on)

Don't you know I need you beside me
Come right back and let your love hide me

Come back and finish what you started
And don't leave me hanging on (Hanging on, hanging on)
Come back and finish what you started
