Stand Back

No one looked as I walked by
Just an invitation would have been just fine
Said no to him, again and again
First he took my heart, then he ran
No one knows how I feel
What I say unless you read between my lines
One man walked away from me
First he took my hand, take me home
Stand back, stand back
In the middle of my room
I did not hear from you
It's alright, it's alright
To be standing in a line
(Standing in a line)
I would cry
Do not turn away my friend
Like a willow I can bend
No man calls my name
No man came
So I walked on down away from you
Maybe your attention was more
Than you could do
One man did not call
He asked me for my love
And that was all
Stand back, stand back
In the middle of my room
I did not hear from you
It's alright, it's alright
To be standing in a line
(Standing in a line)
(Standing in a line)
So I walked on down the line
Away from you
Maybe your attention was more
Than I could do
One man did not call
Well he asked me for my love
That was all
