Can’t Stand Losing You (My Songs Version) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've called you so many times today
I guess it's all true what your girlfriends say
You don't ever want to see me again
And your brother's gonna kill me and he's six feet ten

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess you'd call it cowardice
I'm not prepared to go on like this

[Chorus]
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't
I can't stand losing you
I can't stand losing you
I can't stand losing you
I can't stand losing you

[Verse 2]
I see you've sent my letters back
My LP records and they're all scratched
I can't see the point in another day
When nobody listens to a word I say
[Pre-Chorus]
You can call it lack of confidence
But to carry on living doesn't make no sense

[Chorus]
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing you

[Bridge]
I guess this is our last goodbye
And you don't care so I won't cry
But you'll be sorry when I'm dead
And all this guilt will be on your head

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess you'd call it suicide
But I'm too full to swallow my pride
[Outro]
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't (I can't)
I can't stand losing
I can't
I can't stand losing you
I can't stand losing you
I can't stand losing you
I can't stand losing you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
