Stop Don't Stop - Mary McBride

Met you down at the river’s edge

Five feet away cigarette in your hand

Couldn’t tell what was coming round the bend

But we knew to make way

Love was sneaking in

Stop Don’t Stop, Love is taking us in

Stop Don’t Stop, there i said it again

Stop Don’t Stop Don’t Stop, Love Gets its own way

I was living in the city with sidewalk blues

You shook me right on out of that crazy mood

I was hiding behind a devil’s grin

You gave me everything you had

And I gave in

If I was a fortune teller

Seven days would turn to ten

If I was a healing preacher

Broken bones would walk again

You’d be calling my name every night and day

You’d know what I mean when I say…

Finally stopped wondering which way to move

Got nothing to win, nothing to lose

You said stop thinking too much

Get out of your head

Knowing doesn’t help, hold me instead
