Stand and Deliver Songtext
von Billy Ocean

Stand and deliver (hmm)
Stand and deliver

You made me a promise
Sealed it with a kiss
Had me thinking everything was good

It was good from the start
I loved you from my heart
Why do you want to stop the show?

I′ve got it, baby
You can make it better (ooh)
Baby, say you will
It's driving me mad
′Cause I love you (I love you)
There's so much more to say
Don't leave me this way

Stand and deliver


Can′t you see me coming, baby?
Don′t close the door (don't close the door)
Stand and deliver
You might be missing something that you never had before, whoa

Thought we′d go the distance
Now there's some resistance
You′re telling me you're not too sure
Love only has a shot if you give it all you′ve got

And girl, you've got to give some more, uh
(Give some more, give some more)
I feel like I'm on the outside
Tossing like a leave in the wind

If I had to start all over without you (ooh, ooh)
I wouldn′t know where to begin (ooh, ooh)
′Cause you are all that I need, and I want you bad enough
To keep on trying

Stand and deliver

Can't you see me coming, baby?
Don′t close the door (don't close the door)
Stand and deliver
You might be missing something that you never had before, no, no, no

Stand and deliver (ooh)


Can′t you see me coming, baby?
Don't close the door (close the door)
Stand and deliver (ooh)
I say, you might be missing something that you never had before, no

Woo

Give it up, give it up
Come on and make a stand

You gotta, you gotta, you gotta
(Oh, yes)
You know that you are so right for me? (So right for me)

I know that I′m right for you
Stop hesitating
You are all that I need (all that I need)
I want you bad enough to keep on trying

Stand and deliver

Can't you see me coming, baby?
Don't close the door (don′t close the door)
Stand and deliver
You might be missing something that you never had before, no, no, no
Stand and deliver
Feels like I′m on the outside, baby (ooh)

Can't you see me coming, baby?
Don′t close the door (don't close the door)
Stand and deliver (ooh)
You might be missing something, yeah
You might be missing something, yeah
Stand and deliver (ooh)
Don′t leave me on the outside, baby
I'm tossing like a leave in the wind, mmm

Stand and deliver (ooh)
Oh, baby, say you will (say you will, say you will)
Stand and deliver (ooh)
Oh, baby, say you will (say you will)
Oh (don′t you say no)
Stand and deliver (ooh)
I want you bad enough to keep on trying
Stand and deliver (ooh)
