And I Thought You Loved Me

(album: Thelma Houston - 1972)

You took my hand and pulled me close
And gently brushed your head upon my cheek
You whispered something in my ear
So softly, I could hardly hear you speak
You stared straight in my eyes
And pulled me closer and closer to your lips
Ooh yeah, baby
And just as we were face to face
You stopped me, and you kissed my fingertips

And I thought you loved me
When I saw that loving feeling in your eyes
And I thought you loved me, boy
But you were really a-kissing me goodbye

You walked up to the window
Saying how it was such a beautiful day, yeah
And you stumbled through your words
Like there was something you thought you couldn't say, no
You listened while I told you
How happy, oh, we are gonna be, yeah
Didn't you, baby?
Then you cut me off, and said that there was something
Oh, I just couldn't see, no

Hey, and I thought you loved me
When I saw that loving feeling in your eyes
And I thought you loved me, yeah
But you were really a-telling me goodbye

And I thought you loved me, yeah
When I saw that loving feeling in your eyes
Oh yeah, baby
And I thought you loved me, yeah
But you were really telling me goodbye
And I thought you loved me
When I saw that loving feeling in your eyes
Oh yeah, baby
And I thought you loved me, yeah
But you were really telling me goodbye
And I thought you loved me
When I saw that loving feeling in your eyes...
