Can't Fight this Feeling (REO Speedwagon cover) Lyrics
I cant fight this feeling any longer
And yet Im still afraid to let it flow
What started out as friendship, has grown stronger
I only wish I had the strength to let it show
And even as I wander
Im keeping you in sight
Youre a candle in the window
On a cold, dark winters night
And Im getting closer than I ever thought I might
And I cant fight this feeling anymore
Ive forgotten what I started fighting for
Its time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars
Baby, I cant fight this feeling anymore
My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you
Ive been running round in circles in my mind
And it always seems that Im following you, girl
Cause you take me to the places that alone Id never find
And even as I wander Im keeping you in sight
Youre a candle in the window on a cold, dark winters night
And Im getting closer than I ever thought I might
And I cant fight this feeling anymore
Ive forgotten what I started fighting for
Its time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars, forever
Cause I cant fight this feeling anymore
Ive forgotten what I started fighting for
And if I have to crawl upon the floor
Come crushing through your door
Baby, I cant fight this feeling anymore.
And yet Im still afraid to let it flow
What started out as friendship, has grown stronger
I only wish I had the strength to let it show
Im keeping you in sight
Youre a candle in the window
On a cold, dark winters night
And Im getting closer than I ever thought I might
Ive forgotten what I started fighting for
Its time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars
Baby, I cant fight this feeling anymore
Ive been running round in circles in my mind
And it always seems that Im following you, girl
Cause you take me to the places that alone Id never find
Youre a candle in the window on a cold, dark winters night
And Im getting closer than I ever thought I might
Ive forgotten what I started fighting for
Its time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars, forever
Ive forgotten what I started fighting for
And if I have to crawl upon the floor
Come crushing through your door
Baby, I cant fight this feeling anymore.

I think this song is about, falling for someone and forgetting about everything around you. Fighting for something or someone you love
I LOVE THIS SONG!
I know everyone else thinks this song is just about "Friendship." Others here have written that it's about a guy who wants to turn a female "FRIEND" into his steady Girlfriend, and BEGIN to date her. Hmmn....I have always felt that their relationship is a bit further along than that. I feel that this song is about a guy who has already been with this Girlfriend for awhile now, but he realizes that what he really wants IS TO MARRY HER!!! Thus, the lyric: "It's time to bring this ship into the shore, and throw away the oars FOREVER! (He said FOREVER.)
