I Can’t Stand for You to Leave Me

Martha Ellis Taylor

[Verse 1]
I know I done you wrong
I treated you so bad
And maybe if I left you alone
You would be so glad
And if that's the way you feel
I only have myself to blame
And darling if we break up
It would be a doggone shame

[Chorus]
I can't stand for you to leave me
I can't stand for you to go
I can't stand for you to leave me
I can't stand for you to go

[Verse 2]
I need your love to guide me
Each and every day
And it would surely break my heart
You were to go astray
So tell you forgive me baby
For all the wrong I've done
Cause I've come to really know
For mе you're the only one

[Chorus]
I can't stand for you to lеave me
I can't stand for you to go
I can't stand for you to leave me
I can't stand for you to go

[Bridge]
Don't stay mad with me baby
You're only wasting my precious time
Cause I should hurt
If I should hurt you
I would lose my mind

[Chorus]
I can't stand for you to leave me (Baby, baby)
I can't stand for you to go (Please listen to me darling)
I can't stand for you to leave me
I can't stand for you to go

For the pain and sorrow
Please don't hold it against me
I know that I was wrong
I'll make it all up to you

[Chorus Outro]
I can't stand for you to leave me
I can't stand for you to go
I can't stand for you to leave me
I can't stand for you to go
