How You Gonna Stand It Lyrics
And you just pulled in your driveway
And you get out of your car
And the next-door neighbor's Collie
Stomps across the big backyard
And it looks a little different now
When you know it's missing love
And everyone knows how you feel
And no one really does
Baby, how you gonna stand it?
How you gonna live
When there's no one left to live for
And there's no love left to give?
When there's no one to put in with you
Like I did for so long
Baby, how you gonna stand it when I'm gone?
Don't forget to taste the wine, love
While your young and it's still warm
Don't forget your sense of humor
In the sunshine and the storm
Don't forget to give the world a smile
As it goes passing by
Don't forget to hide your face, love, when you cry
Baby, how you gonna stand it?
How you gonna live
When there's no one left to live for
And there's no love left to give?
When there's no one to put in with you
Like I did for so long
Baby, how you gonna stand it when I'm gone?
You could call them up and have a party
Everybody knows that parties end
Then who will sit with you after the party?
You're gonna find no one's that good a friend

And at four o'clock some morning
When the silence wakes your mind
And your eyes see something in the room
That I have left behind
And it's too early then to call a friend
So you got to sit alone
And reality confronts you that I'm not coming home
Baby, how you gonna stand it?
Who you gonna call when the memories surround you
From the bedroom to the hall
When there's no one there to cling to you like I did for so long
Baby, how you gonna stand it?
How you gonna stand it?
How you gonna stand it when I'm gone?
