Tell me where you've been to Nowhere that you shouldn't do Tell me what you're good for I can tell you something too Where have you been staying? Tell me what you're playing Hope it's not my conscience But it keeps complaining Didn't meet you in an alley The cats they weren't complaining I met you in the daylight Our visions misbehaving I offer you my temper With the hope that you would tame me We built ourselves a shelter You will always be my baby Feeling, keep on feeling, keep on feeling I only wanna be your one life stand (Keep on feeling) Tell me do you stand by your man? (Keep on feeling) I only wanna be your one life stand (Keep on feeling) Tell me do you stand by your man? (Keep on feeling) Wishes keep remaining Nothing worth containing A balloon with air escaping Is nothing but a plaything Moments keep us guessing And lead us from temptation But better to embrace them And measure our elation I only wanna be your one life stand (Keep on feeling) Tell me do you stand by your man? (Keep on feeling) I only wanna be your one life stand (Keep on feeling) Tell me do you stand by your man? (Keep on feeling) (Could this be, could this be?) I only wanna be your one life stand (Keep on feeling) (Could this be, could this be?) Tell me do you stand by your man? (Keep on feeling) (Could this be, could this be?) I only wanna be your one life stand (Keep on feeling) (Could this be, could this be?) Tell me do you stand by your man? (Keep on feeling)
