About Can't Stand Losing You

According to Songfacts, this song is about a teenager who commits suicide when he loses his girlfriend. It took Sting only a few minutes to write the lyrics. They are not supposed to be deep and meaningful, but more of a joke. This was the first Police song to chart. It hit #42 in England when it was released in 1978. A year later, after The Police became widely known, it was re-released and went to #2. Go to http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=1418 for more info on "Can't Stand Losing You." .

Can't Stand Losing You Lyrics

[00:07.71] I've called you so many times today
[00:10.86] And I guess it's all true what your girlfriends say
[00:14.48] That you don't ever want to see me again
[00:17.76] And your brother's gonna kill me, and he's six feet ten
[00:20.99] I guess you'd call it cowardice
[00:24.27] But I'm not prepared to go on like this
[00:27.75] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[00:31.48] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[00:34.94] I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing you
[00:40.12] I can't stand losing you
[00:43.92] I can't stand losing you
[00:47.48] I can't stand losing you
[00:51.47] I see you sent my letters back
[00:54.54] And my LP records, and they're all scratched
[00:58.36] I can't see the point in another day
[01:01.25] When nobody listens to a word I say
[01:05.44] You can call it lack of confidence
[01:08.30] But to carry on living doesn't make no sense
[01:11.96] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[01:15.31] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[01:18.57] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[01:21.53] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[01:24.98] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[01:28.61] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[01:33.37]
[01:40.44] Oh!
[01:46.02] I guess this is our last goodbye
[01:49.31] And you don't care, so I won't cry
[01:52.66] But you'll be sorry when I'm dead
[01:56.06] And all this guilt will be on your head
[01:59.15] I guess you'd call it suicide
[02:02.51] But I'm too full to swallow my pride
[02:06.07] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[02:09.22] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[02:13.19] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[02:16.23] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[02:19.42] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[02:22.87] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[02:26.09] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[02:29.10] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[02:32.41] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[02:35.72] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[02:39.22] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[02:42.50] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[02:45.79] I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
[02:48.36]
