The Wonders - That Thing You Do

You doing that thing you do!

Like you always do.

Every time you do that thing you do!

And you, don't mean to be cruel.

I've been going through.

Breakin' my heart into a million pieces

Well I try and try to forget you girl

But it's just so hard to do.

You never even knew about the headache

I know all the games you play

Cause we, could be happy can't you see?

'Cause I try and try to forget you girl

And I'm gonna find a way to let you know

Every time you do that thing you do!

If you know me let me be the one to hold you

That you'll be mine someday.

And keep you here with me.

But it's just so hard to do.

I don't ask a lot girl but I know one thing's for sure.

It's the love that I haven't got girl.

Cause we, could be happy can't you see?

and keep you here with me.

If you know me let me be the one to hold you

And I just can't take it anymore.

Cause it hurts me so just to see you girl

I can't take you doing that thing you do.

And to find that you, you're doing that thing.

Around with someone new.

Every day just doing that thing.
