I'd like to post the lyrics of a song I first heard when I was a freshman at UCLA. A girl I liked then gave me a collection of music because we both liked oldies. I finally found the lyrics. Most fans of this song attribute it to Brian Setzer of The Stray Cats. But I'm not sure if he's the original composer. The acapella version of "I Won't Stand In Your Way" is awesome. This song stirs up a lot of nostalgia for my college days. When I feel nostalgic, I go into major downer mode. It's sad and sometimes I can't sleep at night.

Tonight, I thought of this song because I think I'm about to lose all chances with another girl whom I like. I think the game is over with her. So enjoy the lyrics and think of me.

Here's the link to the video on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dtn1iuNi2aY


I WON'T STAND IN YOUR WAY
The Stray Cats
(Brian Setzer)

I - I got a low down dirty feeling
That I been cheated on and lied to
If it's so then it's wrong
We've hung on for so long
Why don't we have that magic anymore

I've got a strange sneaking suspicion
That's it's been going on for sometime now
Something shines in your eyes
Something stirs deep inside
I won't stand in your way anymore

You say that I'm just a little boy who's easily led astray
Well aren't you that same little girl
Who always gets her way

I - I got a strange sneaking suspicion
That it's been going on for sometime now
Something shines in your eyes
Something stirs deep inside
I won't stand in your way anymore

You say that I'm just a little boy who's easily led astray
Well aren't you that same little girl
Who always gets her way

I - I got a low down dirty feeling
That I've been cheated on and lied to
Something shines in your eyes
Somethings stirs deep inside
I won't stand in your way
I won't stand in your way
I won't stand in your way
Anymore
