I Can't Stop
Sasha & John Digweed Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't I can't
I can't I can't
I can't I can't
I can't even tell you what you want
I can't even tell you about you
I can't even tell you what you want
I can't even do
Tell me just a bit of whatcha feelin
Are we wasting time
Did we hit kind of a ceiling
I'm standing in a line
Waiting for your wisdom
For your teaching
I'm hoping for some healing
But I'm missing all the meaning
I need to take a step back
I need to take a minute
Tell me what you see (yeah yeah)
Tell me are we finished

I can't I can't
I can't I can't
I can't I can't
I can't even tell you what you want
I can't even tell you about you




I can't even tell you what you want
I can't even do
