[Verse 1]
No one looked as I walked by
Just an invitation would have been just fine
Said no to him again and again
First he took my heart then he ran
No one knows how I feel
What I say unless you read between my lines
One man walked away from me
First he took my hand
Take me home
[Chorus]
Stand back, stand back
In the middle of my room
I did not hear from you
It's all right, it's all right
To be standing in a line
To be standing in a line
I would cry
La, la, la-la, la, la-la, la-la
La-la
La, la, la-la, la, la-la, la-la
La-la, la, la
[Verse 2]
Do not turn away my friend
Like a willow I can bend
No man calls my name
No man came
[Verse 3]
So I walked on down away from you
Maybe your attention was more
Than you could do
But one man did not call
He asked me for my love
And that was all
[Chorus]
Stand back, stand back
In the middle of my room
I did not hear from you
It's all right, it's all right
To be standing in a line
To be standing in a line
I would cry
La, la, la-la, la, la-la, la-la
La-la
La, la, la-la, la, la-la, la-la
La-la, la, la
La, la, la-la, la, la-la, la-la
La-la
La, la, la-la, la, la-la, la-la
La-la, la, la
[Verse 3]
So I walked down the line
Away from you
Maybe your attention was more
Than I could do
One man did not fall
He asked me for my love
That was all
[Chorus]
Stand back, stand back
In the middle of my room
I did not hear from you
It's all right, it's all right
To be standing in a line
To be standing in a line
I could cry
Stand back!
Stand back!
Stand back!
Stand back!
