I CAN'T STAND IT
I wish I could count on you
I wish I could count on you, oh baby I can't stand it Fussing and fighting all day long Tossing and turning everything seems wrong I can't stand it I wish I could depend on you I wish I could depend on you oh, baby I can't stand it I'm a man with a loving soul Got the things just to rock your soul, oh baby I can't stand it You go west, I go south All I know I'm checking out I can't stand it
I've lost that love, that love, that love before
God, man, and I close, and I close, and I close the door And you say, "try just once more" And you came and you took control You touched my very soul You always show me that Loving you is where it's You've made me so very happy And I'm so glad you came into my life The others were untrue But when it came to loving you, now I'd spend my whole life with you girl Because you came and you took control You touch my very soul You always show me that You've made me so very happy And I'm so glad you came into my life |
