"Till I Couldn't Stand No More" lyrics

Till I Couldn't Stand No More

I just woke up
And eighteen years were gone
And I could find us
In the words to every song
As I packed our lifes together
In the boxes on the floor
Girl I stood there
Till I couldn't stand no more

You won't find me
Standing at your door
And you won't be
Breaking my old heart no more
Cause darling I'm all through
Just wearing out my floor
Girl I stood there
Till I couldn't stand no more

Lord, this old house you see
Is just an empty shell
And the memories where our love
Baby, just rose and fell
So when you come to where you don't
Want to live here anymore
Girl I stood there
Till I couldn't stand no more

Well you won't find me
Standing at your door
And you won't be
Breaking this old heart no more
Cause darling I'm all through
Just wearing out my floor
You know I stood there
Till I couldn't stand no more

Baby, I stood there
Till I couldn't stand no more
