Bobby Womack - More Than I Can Stand lyrics

oh, baby!

girl, don't pull the rug from under my feet (don't do it baby)

don't leave, don't leave me so, i'm talking in my sleep

this could be the start of a nightmare

waking up and not finding you there

it would be more that i could stand

oh, baby

girl, don't leave me so i'm pacing the floor (don't do it baby)

cause that's, that's what i'll do if you close the door

maybe i've been too hung up on myself

but don't change me by putting my heart on a shelf

cause that's more than i could stand

why you wanna leave me?

why you wanna go?

i promise not

to never never hurt you no more

oh, please don't leave me

please don't go

by causin' my heart to ache

causin' it to break

we, we've still got, a lot of love to give (yeah)

so turn around, baby (turn around)

while there's a lot of life to live

leavin' me would ruin all of my plans

it would be like tying the both of my hands

and that's more baby than i could stand

why you wanna leave me?

why you wanna go?
