Can’t Stop


December 27, 2005

Ah love… can’t (won’t) stop loving you…

Spent my lifetime loving you. I was 17 when we met.
Where there is love, life begins. I was 18 when we married.
You cured my outlaw ways. Love is worth everything we pay.
Oh, I wish, I wish, I wish…

Ray Charles barely touches the scope of longing…

… I’ve made up my mind
To live in memories of the lonesome times
(I can’t stop wanting you)

… It’s useless to say
So I’ll just live my life of dreams of yesterday
(Dreams of yesterday)

… Those happy hours that we once knew
Tho’ long ago, they still make me blue

… They say that time heals a broken heart

… But time has stood still since we’ve been apart
(I can’t stop loving you)

… I’ve made up my mind
To live in memories of the lonesome times
(I can’t stop wanting you)

… It’s useless to say
So I’ll just live my life of dreams of yesterday

… Those happy hours
(That we once knew)
That we once knew
(Tho’ long ago)
Tho’ long ago
(Still make me blue)
Still make me blue

… They say that time
(Heals a broken heart)
Heals a broken heart
(But time has stood still)
Time has stood still
(Since we’ve been apart)
Since we’ve been apart

… I said I made up my mind
To live in memories of the lonesome times
Sing the song, children
(I can’t stop wanting you)

… It’s useless to say
So I’ll just live my life of dreams of yesterday
(Of yesterday)

I Can’t Stop Loving You
Ray Charles
