Syncopation

(album: Suddenly - 1984)

Syncopation. Syncopation.

Oh, I miss that syncopation.
I guess I'll never really understand.
She gave no indication
that she was loving any other man.

When she holds me
her body does strange things to mine.
When she loves me
then I know she's one of a kind.

She's really special.
She knows what good love is all about.
Ooh, yeah.
She's got something
I don't want to live without.
Ooh, yeah.

I miss that syncopation.
I guess I'll never really understand.
She gave no indication
that she was loving any other man.

I can't imagine
my baby with somebody new.
Oh, no, no. I'm so confused
that I don't know what to do.

Ooh, ee.
I took love for granted,
and now I'm left here all alone.
Alone and crying.
You're all I'm wanting
so girl won't you come back home?

Ooh, I miss that syncopation.
I guess I'll never really understand.
She gave no indication
that she was loving any other man.

Ooh, I miss that syncopation.
I guess I'll never really understand.
She gave no indication
that she was loving any other man.

You see I never had a lover
who could make me over like this, like this.
And there'll never be another
who could take me over like this, like this.

Ooh, how I miss that syncopation.
Baby's found another.
Baby's found another.
She's found another lover.
Ooh my baby.
Woo.

Ooh, how I miss that syncopation.
Baby's found another.
Baby's found another.
She's found another lover.
Ooh my baby.
Woo.

Ooh, I miss that syncopation.
I guess I'll never really understand.
She gave no indication
that she was loving any other man.

Baby come back 'cause I
miss your syncopation.
Baby come back 'cause I
miss your syncopation.

Baby, why'd you go?

Baby come back 'cause I
miss your syncopation.
Baby come back 'cause I...

I'm really missing your love!

Baby come back 'cause I
miss your syncopation.
Baby come back 'cause I
miss your syncopation.

M' m' m' my baby.
