Lyrics
IF I STAND STILL
All my life
In a rush to chase across the face of time
Moving like a wind I thought would never ever end
I whirled away and left your love behind
Why count the cost
Before my eyes was every prize I could desire
Dreams of wealth untold, burning in my soul
Until reality put out the fire
Now if I stand still
And contemplate the downside of this hill
Did I try to fly too high
Has my well of love gone dry
Will I drink there by and by if I stand still
If I stand still
And calm the sea that swept me from your side
Would you let this fool back in, take a chance and love again
Can your broken heart be satisfied.
Repeat chorus: If I stand still, etc.
I can't go on until I know my fate
Won't you tell me that I haven't changed my ways too late
Repeat chorus: Now if I stand still, etc.
If I stand still...if I stand still...if I stand still...if I stand still
