good feedback, guys, thx

ok, lisa, that makes sense... yes, i was just asking about this lyric with the "don't stop" phrase, which i guess means "do"!

i had thought he was was saying that he was currently hurting and unless he got up the nerve to pick up the phone, then he would, instead, be reaching for the bottle (again)

so char, then this song is in keeping with the influence behind the If Children Had Wings yearning
