No one looked as I walked by
Just an invitation would have been just fine
Said no 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 alright it's alright
To be standing in a line
Standing in a line
To be standing in a line
I'd cry
la la lala lalala lala lala
la la lala la

Do not turn away my friend
Like a willow I can bend
No man calls my name
No man came

So I walked on down away from you
Maybe your attention was more than you could do
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 alright it's alright
To be standing in a line
Standing in a line
To be standing in a line
I'd cry
la la lala lalala lala lala
la la lala la

So I walked on down the line
Away from you
Maybe your attention was more
Than I could do
One man did not call
Well 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 alright it's alright
To be standing in a line
Standing in a line
To be standing in a line
I'd cry

[Chorus]
Stand back stand back
In the middle of my room
I did not hear from you
It's alright it's alright
To be standing in a line
Standing in a line
To be standing in a line
I'd cry
