I can't help it

I figure out the 500 poems I found. I believe my father's first wife wrote down the words for my father of the old songs from 1940-1958. She die of cancer. He was a country singer.

                     I can't help it

Today I passed you on the street

and my heart fell at your feet.

I can't help if I am still in love with you.

Somebody else stood by your side

and he looked so satisfied.

I can't help it if I am still in love with you.

A picture from the past came slowly stealing

as I brushed your arm and walked so close to you.

Then suddenly I got the old time feeling.

I can't help it if I am still in love with you.

It's hard to know another's lips will kiss you

and hold you just the way I used to do.

Oh, heaven only knows how much I miss you.

I can't help it if I am still in love with you.

A song and some words. Great poetry make great song.
