Stevie Ann Leave Me Standing Here lyrics

I don't know about love
But it's you I'm thinking of
Biding time with every part of me
My own serenade
Would you do the same?
And let me wake up right here next to you

Turn around and be the brighter day
It's only you that colors in the grey
Don't turn away and leave me standing here

Every memory
Fading like a dream
Growing older, disappearing
We stayed until the end
Used up all our strength

We folded up like paper tigers

Feeling like a failure every time
Oh if only you could read my mind
You would see my burning desire
Inside of me you start a million fires
So don't you go and leave me standing here

“I will always love you” was like you said
Another time might be a better bet
You left something permanent behind
Now I realize what I had in mind
So don't you go and leave me standing here
