No one looked, I walked by 
Just an invitation would have been just fine 
I said, "No to him" again and again 
First he took my heart then he ran 
No, no one knows how I feel 
What I mean unless you read between my lines 
One man walked away from me 
First he took my hand, he said, "Take me" 
Stand back, stand back 
In the middle of my room I did not hear from you 
Well it's alright, it's alright 
To be standing in a line, standing in a line 
I would 
Do not turn away my friend 
Well like a willow when I can bend 
No man said he called my name 
You know, no man came 
So I went on down road away from you 
Maybe my attention was more than I could do with 
One man said he would not call 
Then he asked me for too much 
He said, "Take me" 
Stand back, stand back 
In the middle of my room I did not hear from you 
Well it's alright, it's alright 
To be standing in a line, to be standing in a line 
Well I would 
So I went on down road away from you 
Maybe my attention was more than I could do with 
Well that man said he would not call 
Then he asked me for too much 
He said, "Take me" 
Stand back, stand back 
In the middle of my room I did not hear from you 
Well it's alright, it's alright 
To be standing in a line, to be standing in a line 
Well I would 
Stand back 
Stand back 
Stand back
