Lyrics

0:04written by Keith Andes and Ricky Jones
0:05lead vocals: Melvin Edmonds, Kevon Edmonds
0:20I guess I figured out
0:23That something was wrong
0:25And that things have changed
0:29Cause girl I sit by the phone
0:32And I wait for your call
0:34But the phone never rings
0:38So I picked up the phone and called you at home
0:43You're on the other line,
0:46I wanna talk to you maybe
0:50Even see you, you say you have no time
0:57You started doing things that
1:01You never did before,
1:07How could something so right turn out to be
1:12Something so wrong
1:16You thought the grass was greener
1:20You thought the well had water
1:24You thought that you could find a
1:28Love another place
1:32So how could you leave this good thing
1:52We use to take long walks
1:54And have long, long talks
1:56On the telephone
2:00You use to hold my hand in the
2:03Shopping mall, I felt I was your own,
2:09We stopped going out as much
2:13I started feeling all alone
2:18Girl you stopped telling me you loved me
2:21Saying that you cared
2:23But I still carried on
2:28I thought we could work things out
2:32But I just don't understand why
2:39How could you leave someone patient
2:42Like me for something so wrong
2:47You thought the grass was greener
2:51You thought the well had water
2:56You thought that you could find a
2:59Love another place
3:03So how could you leave this good thing
3:11Even though you, broke my heart in two
3:18I was just hanging on,
3:21Trying to do what was right and you were already gone
3:27You thought the grass was greener
3:31You thought the well had water
3:36You thought that you could find a
3:39Love another place
3:43So how could you leave
4:14When love came you went away
4:18And if I see you again
4:23Girl I would ask you how could you leave
4:28how could you how could you me leave ,baby
4:32When love came you went away
4:36And if I see you again
4:40Girl I would ask you how could you leave
4:47This good thing

I guess I figured out
That something was wrong
And that things have changed
Cause girl I sit by the phone
And I wait for your call
But the phone never rings
So I picked up the phone and called you at home
You're on the other line,
I wanna talk to you maybe
Even see you, you say you have no time
You started doing things that
You never did before,
How could something so right turn out to be
Something so wrong
You thought the grass was greener
You thought the well had water
You thought that you could find a
Love another place
So how could you leave this good thing
We use to take long walks
And have long, long talks
On the telephone
You use to hold my hand in the
Shopping mall, I felt I was your own,
We stopped going out as much
I started feeling all alone
Girl you stopped telling me you loved me
Saying that you cared
But I still carried on
I thought we could work things out
But I just don't understand why
How could you leave someone patient
Like me for something so wrong
You thought the grass was greener
You thought the well had water
You thought that you could find a
Love another place
So how could you leave this good thing
Even though you, broke my heart in two
I was just hanging on,
Trying to do what  was right and you were already gone
You thought the grass was greener
You thought the well had water
You thought that you could find a
Love another place
So how could you leave
When love came you went away
And if I see you again
Girl I would ask you how could you leave
how could you    how could you  me leave  ,baby
When love came you went away
And if I see you again
Girl I would ask you how could you leave
This good thing
