Stop Doing That

(m. crenshaw)

Stop doing that

Maybe I've missed my chance

To talk to you as a friend

But stop doing that

That's what I'm gonna say

When you and I meet again

I thought the rumors were lies

Until I saw for myself

Not your better watch out

Or you're soon gonna find

That you're on the losing side

Of the battle line

Stop doing that

Don't try to lie to me

The way you lie to yourself

Stop doing that

Don't say that things you do

Shouldn't matter to anyone else

Somewhere in my heart

There will always be a place

For you and all the moments we shared

When we both believed

There was a reason to care

We used to live on the run

Not so long ago

And tt was all about fun

Fun and self discovery

And now you say nothing's changed...

Better look again

'cause the way you're living now...

It looks more like you're dying to me

You look like walking misery

Stop doing that

Why should I keep on telling you?

You won't stop doing that

All your wreckless self-indulgence

Your disregard for the mess you're creating

Don't tell me, I know it's hard...

Now I don't know where to find you

But if you were here

I'd grab you by the collar

And whisper in your ear

Stop doing that
