“Girl Can’t Help It” is the third single off of Journey’s 1986 album Raised on Radio. The song tells the story of a guy and a girl who have feelings for each other, but can’t start a relationship due to differing priorities and motives. Like the two singles before it, “Girl Can’t Help It” was a Bill...
[Verse 1]
If he could hold her, so close in his arms...again
If she could show him
The letter her heart forgot to send...why
They're living dreams on their own
Ooh they'll never stop running
[Chorus]
The girl can't help it, she needs more
He hasn't found what he's looking for
They're still standing in the rain
He can't help it, and she's just that way
[Verse 2]
And when he calls her
She tells him that she still cares
Under the moonlight
He wonders why she can't be there...why
Why do they go on alone
When they're missing each other
[Chorus]
The girl can't help it, she needs more
He hasn't found what he's looking for
They're still standing in the rain
He can't help it, and she's just that way
And when he calls her
She tells him that she still cares
Under the moonlight
He wonders why she can't be there...why
Why do they go on alone
When they're missing each other
The girl can't help it, she needs more
He hasn't found what he's looking for
They're still standing in the rain
He can't help it, and she's just that way
And when he calls her
She tells him that she still cares
Under the moonlight
He wonders why she can't be there...why
Why do they go on alone
When they're missing each other
[Outro]
There's a fire
Ooh there's a fire in his eyes for you
Don't you know she still cries
Ooh do you know she still cries for you
Fire
Ooh there's a fire in his eyes for you
For you she cries
Ooh do you know she still cries for you
Fire
Ooh there's a fire in his eyes for you
Ooh nothing stands between love and you
