Written by dennis deyoung Lead vocals by dennis deyoung Time stands still, baby when i touch you I can't believe the way i'm feelin' Please don't speak, it's taken me all this time To find the strength just to say That i never knew what love was til i met you Never thought that i could act this way But i'm still afraid to show how much i need you Tell me, what makes a man like me this way Carrie ann, don't ask me why Baby i work so hard just to hide my emotions Carrie ann, words can't explain The way that i feel in my heart Lovers' hearts never quite beat in time They never find that perfect rhythm You know i let you down many times But this i promise to you That i'll never lead you through doors of deception I won't bind you to a chain of lies Though i know my love for you won't be perfection What i give to you will last all time Carrie ann, don't ask me why Baby i work so hard just to hide my emotions Carrie ann, my words can't explain The way that i feel in my heart Take a little time to realize I'll love you faithfully Just take a little time and you'll see That baby it's me Carrie ann, don't ask me why Baby i work so hard just to hide my emotions Carrie ann, my words can't explain The way that i feel in my heart
