Please Stand Up Lyrics - Singles - School Boy Humor

A song to bring back memories 

Of who we were back then 

A box of notes and letters 

From a locked and loaded pen 

A message sent through airways 

To bring you back to me 

So tighten up your headphones 

And let my voice give you the lead 

Please tell me (Please tell me) 

She may be (Be listening) 

To this song that screams, 

This song I scream 

And if I call your name, 

will you please stand up? 

Just drop everything, 

run straight to the front 

Run right out the door; 

take a left to the spot where 

we used to watch the bright lights shine 

Over West Little Rock 

Baby, will you please stand up? 

And I'll be waiting here where we grew up 

Just gather all the notes and the rings 

and the pretty things 

you're the one who got, 

the one who got away 

Words to help remember 

what we had and what we lost 

Time is telling secrets 

They're telling me the cost 

Of ignoring such perfection, 

I do what I do best 

Like running from commitment, 

And making such a mess 

Please tell me (Please tell me) 

She may be (Be listening) 

To this song that screams, 

This song I scream 

And if I call your name, 

will you please stand up? 

Just drop everything, 

run straight to the front 

Run right out the door; 

take a left to the spot where 

we used to watch the bright lights shine 

Over West Little Rock 

Baby, will you please stand up? 

And I'll be waiting here where we grew up 

Just gather all the notes and the rings 

and the pretty things 

you're the one who got, 

the one who got away 

away 

I hope you hear this 

and it takes away your breath 

Like the Polaroid we took, 

I wrote that I'd be yours forever 

Well I'm still yours 

I wrote a thousand words 

that brought about your love 

I loosened my grip on us, 

but I'm still holding your hand, 

I'm holding on 

I hope you hear this 

and it takes away your breath 

Like the Polaroid we took, 

I wrote that I'd be yours forever 

Well I'm still yours, whoa 

I wrote a thousand words 

that brought about your love 

I loosened my grip on us, 

but I'm still holding your hand, 

I'm holding on 

I'm holding on 

But I'm still yours 

And if I call your name, 

will you please stand up? 

Just drop everything, 

run straight to the front 

Do you will remember 

the way to our spot where 

we used to watch the bright lights shine 

Over West Little Rock 

Baby, will you please stand up? 

And I'll be waiting here where we grew up 

Just gather all the notes and the rings 

and the pretty things 

you're the one who got, 

the one who got away
