Actually,it's called "I Still Can't Get Over Loving You" and yes,this is indeed a stalking song.I've always felt that this tune was heavily inspired by The Police's "Every Breath You Take",which came out just a few months earlier.Ray even steals a line from that song...."every breath you take girl,I'll be watching you".The most chilling line comes near the end,when Ray warns "Don't you ever try to leave...no no...it'll be the last thing you'll ever do".

I'm not sure if it was meant as such, but I always see this as a kind of stalking song.
As the final climax where stalking turns into an actual murder/offense.

Radiohead - Climbing up The Walls

I am the key to the lock in your house
That keeps your toys in the basement
And if you get too far inside
You'll only see my reflection

It's always best when the light is off
I am the pick in the ice
Do not cry out or hit the alarm
You know we're friends till we die

And either way you turn
I'll be there
Open up your skull
I'll be there
Climbing up the walls

It's always best when the light is off
It's always better on the outside
Fifteen blows to the back of your head
Fifteen blows to your mind

So lock the kids up safe tonight
Put the eyes in the cupboard
I've got the smell of a local man
Who's got the loneliest feeling

That either way he turns
I'll be there
Open up your skull
I'll be there

Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls

Love that song (and Mikki Howard's version as well)! Aretha is the Queen, but why does she always sound needy? (If she wasn't "Aretha Franklin" I could picture her fighting over a man on "Jerry Springer".)

I'd say Jennifer Holiday's song "And I'm Tellin' You"
"And I'm tellin' you I'm not goin'
you're the best man I've ever had,
darling there's no way I'm livin' without you
and you, and you, and you - you're gonnna love me"
Honorable mentions to Prince: "I Would Die 4 U"
"I Wanna Be UR Lover"
