Don Henley - I Can’t Stand Still lyrics

I Can't Stand Still

I know you love me

You know I love you too

You know I always will

No matter what you do

You say you haven't got another lover

You say you only want to make the scene

Then you try to keep it under cover

What does that mean?

And baby, I can't stand still (while he's holding you)

I can't stand (while he's kissing you)

So we got a little problem, baby:

How to put together love and work

If I could figure out that one, darlin'

I could save us from a world of hurt

I remember when we walked together

Makin' love on a summer night

Guess we thought that it would last forever

We were all right

But baby, I can't stand still (while he's holding you)

I can't stand still (while he's touching you)

I can take it if you need some freedom

Understand it if you miss your friends

Don't you ever try to think of me some

You never tell me where you've been

You say you haven't got another lover

You say you only want to make the scene

Then you try to keep it under cover

What does that mean?

And baby, I can't stand still (while he's holding you)

I can't stand still (while he's kissing you)

And baby, I can't stand still (while he's holding you)

I can't stand still (while he's touching you)

I can't stand still
