CAN NO LONGER LIVE ALONE WITHOUT YOU
My friend Tommy asked me to write a song for him to sing to his beloved...this was the result. Alas he's too chicken to sing it, so I had to.
Stan loves music, is published (EMI/Capitol), and has experience performing on radio and TV when it was live in the good old days. These days he's just writing
Songwriter of pop, country, inspirational songs. I like to write. I travel a lot to Asia...so my music may have an Asian influence.

Verse 1
Honestly, if you walked away from me today,
I won’t know what I do with my life.
I have grown to love you,
With every beat of my heart,
You refresh me like the mountain dew,
Make my worries depart.
Can no longer live alone without you,
You’re my limbs, my breath, my blue skies,
I can’t walk or breathe or open my eyes,
If you’re not standing by my side … each day!
Verse 2
You know me, there are times I’m so loud and strange,
When I came my burden was so heavy,
But you lifted the fences,
Your heart so big inside,
When I became so senseless
You didn’t even deride.
Can no longer live alone without you,
You’re my limbs, my breath, my blue skies,
I can’t walk or breathe or open my eyes,
If you’re not standing by my side
Verse 3
Oh my love, in my land of peace you walk on water,
I will kiss the very ground that you trod,
And the birds will cheer on,
Knowing that you’re mine,
You nourish me like a gentle fawn,
Telling me I’m fine,
Can no longer live alone without you,
You’re my limbs, my breath, my blue skies,
I can’t walk or breathe or open my eyes,
If you’re not standing by my side
