Lyrics of 'Stranded In Your Love' by Sharon Jones

Lee: (knocks on door)
Sharon: Who is it?
Lee: It's Me Baby
Sharon: What?
Lee: Yeah It's me.... It's me, open the door.
Sharon: I thought you left me, what you doing back here?
Lee: Listen.... Baby they have stole my car!
Sharon: What you mean they stole your car?
Lee: I had it parked around the corner and somebody stole my car! Open the door. Open the door baby.
Sharon: Na na now look Lee, I'm tired of your lies and we done been through this before.. and we aint going through this here again. You hear me?
Lee: Listen this is different this time listen. Just open up the door, open.. up the door, let me explain to you...
Sharon: What you've got to say for yourself now... hmmmm?
Lee: Check this out girl....

I... just came by to get my things
How was I to know
Some joker would steal my ride
Now it's past midnight
And the bus is not running no more
Would it be asking too much
For me to come inside

Now Lee I told you
I don't want you around here no more
We both said it was better for a while
If we didn't meet... yeah

Now I understand baby
But they stole my automobile
After all we've been through together
You can't just leave me out here in the street

Aint no other way, but to stay
Now I'm stranded... In your love

Girl I just can't hide it
Cos I'm still inside it
What you do to me

Now I'm stranded... In your love

I keep trying to move on
But that old feeling aint gone
And I'm in misery

Now I'm gonna let you in baby
But you don't take me wrong
Make me change my mind
I send you right back out this door, yeah
Well, use my phone to call your brother
And if you can't get a ride
I guess I'll make you a bed over here
And you can sleep on the floor, yeah

I don't mean to take advantage
But my brother is fast asleep
When I don't sleep on a bed
I get mighty sore
Oh my...

Well I guess there aint any reason
To be uncomfortable
And if it's just for one night
We might as well do it like we've done before

Is this romance or circunstance
Now I'm stranded... In your love

I try and try but I just can't get by
What you do to me

Now I'm stranded... In your love

People don't tend to go from lover to friend
It aint meant to be

Lee: Come here girl... let me hug you... I aint going to try no tricky moves
Sharon: You know Lee, you always been a fast mover... I knew once I let you in the door you was going to wiggle your way back in....
Lee: Mmm mmm this feel good babe, been a long time since I had you in my arms like this
Sharon: You so slick

Now I'm stranded... In your love

There aint no love
Like this wretched love
I can only get from you
And only you

Now I'm stranded... In your love

I keep trying to move on,
But that old feeling aint gone
And I'm in misery

Now I'm stranded... In your love

I... I tried, I tried, I tried,
But I just can't find the one
To make me feel like you do

Now I'm stranded....
