Lyrics The Way You Do the Things You Do - Eddie Kendricks, Temptations

The Way You Do the Things You Do

You got a smile so bright
You know you could’ve been a candle
I’m holding you so tight
You know you could’ve been a handle
The way you sweep me off my feet
You know you could’ve been a broom
The way you smell so sweet
You know you could’ve been some perfume, yeah.
CHORUS:
Well… You could’ve been anything
That you wanted to And I can tell
The way you do the things you do The way you do the things you do As cute as you are
You know you could’ve been a flower
If good looks was a minute
You know you could’ve been an hour
The way you stole my heart,
You know you could’ve been a cruel crook
And, Baby, you’re so smart
You know you could’ve been a school book, yeah.
CHORUS
The way you do the things you do… Oh, Yeah.
(x3)
You make my life so rich
You know you should’ve been some money
And, Baby, you’re so sweet,
You know you should’ve been some honey, Yeah.
Well… You could’ve been anything
That you wanted to And I can tell (Oh I can tell) X2
Yeah, The way you do the things you do The way you do the things you do The way you do the things you do The way you do the things you do
