A Thing Like That Lyrics by The Rokes

Let’s Live for Today: the Rokes in English 1966-68

You thought you'd run to last
One without a won faith, my love
Yeah, I thought you'd realise
That two hands can never fit one glove
You never should have bluffed
You never should have done a thing like that, no
I thought you'd see the foolishness in that
You say that you are vain
Then two hours later you'd say to him
The same thing she told me
The same thing she'd repeat was again
You never should have gone
You never should have done a thing like that, no
I've seen the light and, baby, that is that
Well I, I bet your'e feeling lonely
'Cause I told the other guy
I bet you're feeling stupid
'Cause we found out your lie
How could you look to him?
Oh, you’re lost before you even could begin
There’s one more thing to say
Before I walk away from your door
Don't know who's won the day
But of one thing this I am sure
It makes me so, so sad, yeah
It really makes me sad to have to go, oh
You never should have done a thing like that
It makes me so, so sad, yeah
It really makes me sad to have to go, oh
You never should have done a thing like that
Like that
Like that
Like that
