“I Just Can’t Stop Loving You” is a smooth ballad that expresses the strong attachment and infatuation that often accompanies falling in love.
It was the first single released from Bad and the first of five singles from the album to chart at #1, reaching that coveted spot on the Billboard Hot 100,...
[Intro]
I just want to lay next to you for a while
You look so beautiful tonight
Your eyes are so lovely
Your mouth is so sweet
A lot of people misunderstand me
That's because they don't know me at all
I just want to touch you
And hold you
I need you, God, I need you
I love you so much
[Verse 1: Michael & Siedah]
Each time the wind blows, I hear your voice so I call your name
Whispers at morning, our love is dawning
Heaven's glad you came
You know how I feel, this thing can't go wrong
I'm so proud to say I love you
Your love's got me high, I long to get by
This time is forever, love is the answer
I hear your voice now, you are my choice now
The love you bring
Heaven's in my heart, at your call
I hear harps and angels sing
You know how I feel, this thing can't go wrong
I can't live my life without you
I just can't hold on, I feel we belong
My life ain't worth living if I can't be with you
[Chorus: Both & Siedah]
I just can't stop loving you, I just can't stop loving you
And if I stop, then tell me just what will I do
'Cause I just can't stop loving you
[Verse 2: Michael & Siedah & Both]
At night when the stars shine, I pray in you I'll find a love so true
When morning awakes me, will you come and take me? I'll wait for you
You know how I feel, I won't stop until I hear your voice saying, "I do" ("I do")
This thing can't go wrong, this feeling's so strong
Well, my life ain't worth living if I can't be with you
[Chorus: Michael & Both]
I just can't stop loving you, I just can't stop loving you
(Oh, oh, and it feels)
And if I stop, then tell me just what will I do
(Uh-huh)
I just can't stop loving you
[Bridge: Michael & Siedah & Both]
We can change all the world tomorrow
We can sing songs of yesterday
I can say, "hey, farewell" to sorrow
This is my life and I want to see you for always
[Chorus: Both]
I just can't stop loving you, I just can't stop loving you
(No, baby, if I can't stop) (Oh)
And if I stop, then tell me just what will I do
(Oh! Oh! Oh, oh) (What will I do?)
I just can't stop loving you, I just can't stop loving you
(Hee-hee-hee, without you, girl, you know I do)
And if I stop, then tell me just what will I do
(Oh, oh) (Oh, woah-woah!)

Likely not. He was still dating Brooke Shields on and off at the time.
According to Songfacts, Garrett told SongTalk magazine:
It came as a total surprise. Quincy called me after I had worked with him doing the background vocals for ‘Man In The Mirror’ to come back to the studio to do more work, but when I got there, I was surprised to discover that there was nobody e...
Michael wrote in his 1987 autobiography Moonwalk:
Several people have asked me if I had anybody in mind when I wrote “Can’t Stop Loving You.” And I say that I didn’t, really. I was thinking of somebody while I was singing it, but not while I was writing it.
