And you broke it apart
Why did our love baby, yeah yeah

[Chorus:]
You know you took my love, threw it away
You gonna want, my love someday
Well a bye bye baby
(Bye, bye, bye)

Well I thought your love
Was oh so true
And you lured me baby, yeah
Started loving you

[Chorus]

Well, your love was
Sweeter than
Any I know

Running
Knockin on my front door

Was your only girl
And there was no others, yeah
In this whole wide world

[Chorus]

Whooo, don't need your love, yeah yeah

Strange love, I'm experiencing a strange love
And all those funny funny things you do
They only drive me closer
And closer to you, yeah

Strange romance, they say I'll never ever ever ever have a chance
But every time I close my eyes
And try to realize it I find it harder
And harder to do

I wonder, I wonder if he ever thinks about me
And if it's so, I wanna know 'cause
Every day I love him more and more

Strange, strange affair, keep hoping that someday, one day you'll care
Enough to come into my arms so that I can give you
All my and all my, all my love, all my love, all my love, all my love
All my love, oh I just wanna give you all my love

That day, I first saw you passing by
I wanted, to ask your name but I...was much too shy
But I was looking at you so hard
That you must have had a hunch.
So you came up to me and asked me my name.

You beat me to the punch
That time
You beat me to the punch
Yes you did.

After, I had known you for what seems like a long, long time
I wanted, wanted to ask you would you please, please be mine
Whenever you came around, my heart would pound
So you must have had a hunch.
So you came up to me and asked me to be yours.

You beat me to the punch
One more time
You beat me to the punch
Yes you did.

Since I loved you
I thought you would be true
And love me tender
So I let my heart surrender
To you, yes I did.
But I found out
Beyond a doubt
One day, boy
You were a playboy
Who would go away and leave me
Blue.

So I ain't gonna wait around for you to put me down
This time I'm gonna play my hunch
And walk away this very day.
And beat you to the punch
Yes I will
I'll beat you to the punch
This time.

Well, I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed
Two lovers, and I love them both the same

Let me tell you 'bout my first lover:
He's sweet and kind and he's mine, all mine
He treats me good like a lover should
And makes me love him
I really really love him
Wo wo oh (wo oh)
I love him so (love him so)
And I'll do everything I can to let him know

Well, I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed
Two lovers, and I love them both the same

Let me tell you 'bout my other lover:
You know, he treats me bad, makes me sad
Makes be cry, but still I can't deny
That I love him
I really really love him
Wo wo oh (wo oh)
I love him so (love him so)
And I'll do everything I can to let him know

Darling, well
Don't you know that I can tell
Whenever I look at you
That you think that I'm untrue
'Cause I say that I love two
But I really really do
'Cause you're a split personality (personality)
And in reality (reality)
Both of them are you (they both are you)

Well, I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed
Two lovers, and I love them both the same
Two lovers, and I ain't ashamed...

Operator, operator, I'm so glad that you rang my phone
Operator, operator, I'm so glad that you found me home

I can hear my long gone lover
I've waited such a long long time
So please, operator
Put him on the line, I want him on the line
I want him on the line
I wanna talk to that long gone lover of mine

Operator, operator, there is static in my line
Did he say that his love was true?
Did he say that his love was mine?
Did he say he was coming home?
Did he say where he has been?
I can't hear a word he's saying
If you keep buttin' in, you keep buttin' in
You keep buttin' in
I wanna know if he's comin' home again

It shouldn't take this much time
To clear my mind, ease my mind
Oh operator, please get straight
It's unfair to make me wait any longer
My curiosity is stronger
Don't you know that it's wrong, oh so wrong

Operator, operator, this is very strange
What is the holdup here? Doesn't he have the change
Oh please operator, if he don't have another dime
Reverse the charge to me
Put him on the line, I want him on the line
I want him on the line

I wanna talk to that long gone lover of mine

Laughing boy (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
That's what they used to call you
Before you found a new love to take my place
(Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
Laughing boy (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
That's what they used to call you
You always wore a smile upon your face
(Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
But as I look at you now, I know that somehow
The smile you're wearing is untrue
Laughing boy (Laughing boy), I think you're blue

Your new love (Your new love)
She really must have hurt you
She really must have filled your heart with pain
'Cause I know you well (Know you well)
And you could never fool me
I know that somehow you're not the same
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
As I look at you now, I know that somehow
When you say you're happy, you're lying
Laughing Boy (Laughing boy), I believe you've been crying

(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Don't you know that it's true, I still love you
Just as much as I did before
So laughing boy (Come on home)
Come on home, laughing boy (Come on home)
Come on home, laughing boy (Come on home)
And smile once more

She left you last night
And today you called me on the phone
Asked me if you could come over
'Cause you didn't want to be alone
So you want me to stand in for her
And be the love of your next act
But this time I play the part so well
There'll be no need for her coming back, 'cause...

CHORUS:
You know that I'm your old stand-by
You know that you can call on me
I know the part so well that you can hardly tell
That she's left you in misery

I know you only called me 'cause you needed company
'Cause once again she's left you and your heart's in misery, but...
(chorus)

(repeat and fade):
I don't wanna be your old stand-by
I wanna be with you permanently
I'm gonna play the part from the depths of my heart
And you won't need nobody but me

It would be easier to take the wet from water or the dry from sand
Than for anyone to try to separate us or stop us from holding hands, 'cause

[Chorus]
I love you, I love you from the bottom of my heart
And what love has joined together, what love has joined together
Can nobody take it apart

It would be easier to take the cold from the snow or the heat from fire
Than for anyone to take me love from you 'cause you're my heart's desire, and

[Chorus]

Even if they separate us a thousand miles apart
We will still be together in each other's hearts

It would be easier to change all the seasons of the year
Than for anyone to change the way I feel about you; I love you dear

(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)

You had the sweetest boy in the world
Without a doubt you were the envy of every girl
You're the kind that's never satisfied
You want every boy to pass you by
But the tables turned (the tables turned)
'Cause his words tell you're done
Now the hurts on you
Your little scheme backfired, it's true
You thought it was fun to make the boys run

[Chorus:]
You lost the sweetest boy that you had that time
The sweetest boy that you had

'Cause now he's hangin' around my door
More happier than before
Now you're in misery 'cause you lost him to me
Now the hurts on you, now the hurts on you
Your little scheme backfired, it's true
You made bets, any boy you could get

[Chorus]

(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)

Yes, your loss is my gain
'Cause straight into my arms he came
You want every boy to pass you by
Now the hurts on you, now the hurts on you
Your little scheme backfired, it's true
Now tears of regret just covered your face

[Chorus]

Nothing you can say, Can tear me away, From my guy.
Nothing you could do, 'Cause I'm stuck like glue,
To my guy.
I'm sticking to my guy, Like a stamp to a letter,
Like birds of a feather, We, stick together,
I can tell you from the start,
I can't be torn apart from my guy.
Nothing you could do, Could make me be untrue,
To my guy.
(My Guy)
Nothing you could buy, Could make me tell a lie,
To my guy
(My Guy)
I gave my guy, My word of honour, To be faithful,
And I'm gonna, You'd better be believing,
I won't be deceiving, My guy.
As a matter of opinion, I think he's tops, My opinion is,
He's the cream of the crop, As a matter of taste,
To be exact, He's my ideal, As a matter of fact.
No muscle bound man, Could take my hand, From my guy.
(My guy)
No handsome face, Could ever take the place,
Of my guy,
(My guy)
He may not be a movie star,
But when it comes to being happy,
We are, There's not a man today,
Who can take me away, From my guy.
No muscle bound man, Could take my hand, From my guy.
(My guy)
No handsome face, Could ever take the place,
Of my guy,
(My guy)
He may not be a movie star,
But when it comes to being happy,
We are, There's not a man today,
Who can take me away,
From my guy.
(What'cha say?)
There's not a man today, Who could take me away,
From my guy.
(Tell me more! )
There's not a man today, Who could take me away,
From my guy
