A Good Thing Going
Engelbert Humperdinck · Engelbert [1969]
but it's all over now girl
We had a good thing going
that is so hard to find
We've been in love
but you didn't really care
I wanted you
and your love to share
I said baby
is it something I've done
I said baby
is it something I've said
Don't make me cry
no no no no no
We had a good thing going
but it's all over now girl
We had a good thing going
that is so hard to find
I didn't know you
had a doubt in your mind
With a kiss you
didn't show any sign
You made a fool out of me
and I was too blind
I couldn't see
it was over for me yeah
We had a good thing going
but it's all over now girl
We had a good thing going
but it's all over now
all over now
all over now
