(N. Ashford/L. Caston)
"Hello, hello", I say with a great big smile
Fingers crossed behind my back all the while
Just when I made you think I'm glad, oh, so glad to be free
Here they come to show the world the real side of me
I can feel the tears left over from last night
Comes back the sun each day
But the memories of our love
They don't wash away
Ooh, look out
Ohh, here they come now
When you passed me by, oh baby (oo-oo)
Oh Lord, don't let him know that I've been suffering
Try to laugh, ha-ha, and talk about everyday things
Oh, but suddenly a rush comes over me
Honey, here they come rolling down my face
For the world to see
I can feel the tears left over from last night
Comes back the sun each day
But the memories of our love
They don't wash away (ooo, ooo)
Ooh, here they come now
When you passed me by
Oh, I'm gonna get back to my baby
Ooo, ooo (ooo, ooo)
Yeah (yeah, yeah)
(Ooo, ooo)
Hey, ain't no use in building a well without you
(Ain't no use)
'Cause there's a leak in the building
Where my tears keep coming through
I can feel the tears left over from last night
Comes back the sun each day
But the memories of our love
They don't wash away
[repeat til fade]
