Every time I see you
It's just because you're blue
You don't really need me
The way that I need you
Don't come on so groovy
You do better mean
You're like an old time movie
One that I've already seen
Baby, yes I need your love
But I'm not gonna get this low
Don't you think that I can tell
When you've no place else to go
Could it be you misunderstood
When you tried to read my mind
Cause this time you will find
I'm gonna let you go
Every time I see you
You're like an old time movie
Baby, yes I need your love
But I'm not gonna get this low
Don't you think that I can tell
When you've got no place else to go
Could it be you understood
When you tried to read my mind
Cause this time you will find
I'm gonna let you go
Every time I see you
