Maroon 5 – Can't Stop

"Can't Stop" as written by Matthias Weber, M. Canady, Sakin Serhat and Sugarstar....
All alone in my room think of you at a rate that is truly alarming
I keep grouping my memories of you in my head, I pretend that you want me
And I fall asleep and dream of alternate realities
And I put myself at ease by pretending that she still loves me

And I can't stop thinking about you
And I can't stop thinking about you
You never go on till I do
And I can't stop thinking about your love

Oh yeah

Can't believe I could think that she would just follow me everywhere I go
I was wrestling with you in my dreams, and wake up making love to a pillow
And I fall asleep and dream of alternate realities
And I put myself at ease by pretending that she still loves me

And I can't stop thinking about you
And I can't stop thinking about you
And you never go on till I do
And I can't stop, and I can't stop

What I would give to have you look in my direction
And I'd give my life to somehow attract your attention
And I touch myself like it's somebody else
Thoughts of you are tattooed on my mind
Let me show you

I can't stop thinking about you
And I can't stop thinking about you
You never go on till I do
And I can't stop thinking about you
And I can't stop thinking about you
I can't stop thinking about you
You never go on till I do
I can't stop thinking about you

    General CommentAt least I can feel a little more light-hearted knowing everyone is getting a good laugh. Also I know anything sincere woulden't come from the mind of a sleepless mind.

    General CommentI love the line "I touch myself like it's somebody else". That's hot.

    And I can't help but picture the lead singer humping a pillow when I hear to "making love to my pillow lyric"... LMAO.

    General CommentDoesn't anyone think it's a little stalker-ish? I mean come on, he's humping his pillow at night thinking about her. I guess it's the repetitive line "I can't stop thinking about you" that makes me think this. And the line "I'd give my life to somehow attract your attention".
