I told you before
|
You know it may take a little while
|
I'd like to go there with you but
|
Runnin' just ain't my style
|
You want me to stay, well
|
You got to take it nice and slow
|
I'll show you the way
|
Just tell me if you want to know
|
|
I remember the time
|
When we thought we'd never get enough
|
Tryin' to make a new love
|
And makin' it all at once
|
We wonder how we keep it up
|
After all these years
|
You worry 'bout your end, baby
|
I'll bring up the rear
|
|
I love you baby
|
Don't you put me up against the wall
|
I ain't gonna jump every time
|
You need an overhaul
|
Maybe it'll take all night
|
But we'll do it 'til we get it right
|
And we'll be standin' by the same old love
|
That made us fall
|
|
There's a lot more to love
|
Than seein' how much love we can make
|
There's the kindness that makes it
|
So sweet 'til your little heart could break
|
And I want you to know
|
That I'm not just along for the ride
|
And I won't settle for less than
|
Everything I've got inside
|
|
I love you baby
|
Don't you put me up against the wall
|
I ain't gonna jump every time
|
You need an overhaul
|
Maybe it'll take all night
|
But we'll do it 'til we get it right
|
And we'll be standin' by the same,
|
Standin' by the same
|
Well, we'll be standin' by the same old
|
Oughta be standin' by the same old love
|
Oooo, standin'
|
Standin'
|
|
[Starts to fade...]
|
|
Why aren't ya standin'?
|
Oughta be standin'
|
Why aren't you just standin'?
|
Why aren't you just standin'?
|
Why aren't you just standin'?...
|

Standin' By The Same Old Love
