I should laugh, but I cry
Because your love has passed me by
You took me by surprise

You didn't realize that I was waiting

Time goes slowly but carries on

And now the best years have come and gone
You took me by surprise
I didn't realize that you were laughing


(chorus)
(Laughing) The things you're doin' to me

(Laughing) That ain't the way it should be
You took away everything I had
You put the hurt on me


(repeat)


I go alone now, calling your name
After losing at the game
You took me by surprise

I didn't realize that you were laughing

Time goes slowly, but carries on

And now the best years
the best years have come and gone
You took me by surprise

I didn't realize that you were laughing

(chorus 2x)


Ooh!


(Laughing) ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
(Laughing) ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
(Laughing) well, you're laughin' at me

(Laughing) well, you're laughin' at me
(Laughing) oh, what you're doin' to me, girl
(Laughing) I'm a-lookin', you're laughin'

(Laughing) I'm a-lookin', you're laughin'
(Laughing) you're a-lookin', I'm a-laughin'
(Laughing) laughin' at me

(Laughing) ah, but you're a-laughin', baby
(Laughing)


(fade)
