This is the title track from Don Henley's first solo album ,
I Can't Stand Still.
I CAN'T STAND STILL
-------------------
Intro:
I know you love me
You know I love you too
You know I always will
No matter what you do
You say you haven't got another lover
You say you only want to make this scene
Then you try to keep it under cover
What does that mean
Chorus:
And baby I can't stand still
While he's holding you
I can't stand still
While he's touching you
So we got a little problem baby
How to put together love and work
If I could figure out that one darling
I could save us from a world of hurt
I remember when we walked together
Making love on a summer night
If we thought that it would last forever
We were all right
Chorus:
But baby I can't stand still
While he's touching you baby
I can't stand still
While he's kissing you
I can take it if you need some freedom
Understand it if you miss your friends
But don't you ever try to think of me some
Never tell me where you been
You say you haven't got another lover
You say you only want to make this scene
Then you try to keep it under cover
What does that mean
Chorus:

Who can show me what laughter means
And we'll fill in the missing colors
In each others paint-by-number dreams" -- Jackson Browne
