I Can't Stand It
Love's Agony: Linda Jones' Emotional Journey Revealed
Lyrics
I can't stand the pain of love
I can't bear the emotional pain associated with love.
When you get all the love
When you receive all the love.
I can't stand the pain of life
I can't endure the difficulties and hardships of life.
I can't even stand the shock.
I can't even handle the emotional impact or surprise.
But when I hear you say
However, when I hear you expressing...
That you will go away
...the intention to leave or end the relationship.
And leave me someday
...and eventually leave me.
I can't stand itI can't stand it
I find it extremely difficult to cope with.
I can't stand itI can't stand it
This emotional distress is overwhelming for me.
When you stand close to me
When you are in close proximity to me.
You makes me kind of weak
You make me feel vulnerable or powerless.
And when you hold me tight
When you embrace me strongly.
My poor heart skips a beat
My heart beats irregularly or with excitement.
And when I hear you say
When I hear you express...
That you will go away
...the intention to leave or end the relationship.
And leave me someday
...and eventually leave me.
I can't stand it
Again, I find it extremely difficult to cope with.
When you're standin' close to me
Reiteration of the emotional impact when you are close.
You make me kinda weak
Reiteration of feeling vulnerable when you are close.
And when you hold me tight
Reiteration of the emotional impact when you hold me tight.
My poor heart skips a beat
Reiteration of the irregular heartbeat when held tightly.
And when I hear you say
Repetition of the distress when hearing about leaving.
That you will go away
Repetition of the intention to leave and the distress it causes.
And leave me someday
Repetition of the eventual departure causing distress.
I can't stand it
Once again, expressing extreme difficulty in coping.
