Can't Stand Losing You

The Police · The 50 Greatest Songs [2009]

I've called you so many times today

And I guess it's all true what your girlfriends say

That you don't ever want to see me again

And your brother's going to kill me, and he's six feet ten

I guess you'd call it cowardice but I'm not prepared to go on like this



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, I can't stand losing you, I can't stand losing you

I can't stand losing you, I can't stand losing you



I see you've sent my letters back

And 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

You can call it lack of confidence

But to carry on living doesn't make no sense



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 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

I guess you'd call it suicide but I'm too full to swallow my pride



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, 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, can't stand losing you
