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 swept me off my feet
You know you could’ve been a broom
And baby you smell so sweet
You know you could’ve been some perfume

Well you could’ve been anything that you wanted to
I can tell
The way you do the things you do
I like the way you do the things you do

As pretty as you are
You know you could’ve been a flower
If good looks were minutes
You know you could have been an hour

The way you stole my heart
You know you could have been a crook
And baby you’re so smart
You know you could have been a school book

Well you could’ve been anything that you wanted to
I can tell
The way you do the things you do
I like the way you do the things you do

You make my life so rich
You know you could’ve been some money
And baby you’re so sweet
You know you could have been some honey

Well you could’ve been anything that you wanted to
I can tell
The way you do the things you do
I like the way you do the things you do

As pretty as you are
You know you could’ve been a flower
If good looks were minutes
You know you could’ve been an hour

The way you stole my heart
You know you could’ve been a crook
And baby you’re so smart
You know you could have been a school book

Well you could’ve been anything that you wanted to
I can tell
The way you do the things you do
I like the way you do the things you do
The way you do the things you do
I like the way you do the things you do

The way you do the things you do
I like the way you do the things you do
You made my life so sweet
I like the way you do the things you do

The Way You Do the Things You Do lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC

Hello, you fool, I love you
C’mon join the joyride

I hit the road out of nowhere
I had to jump in my car
And be a rider in a love game
Following the stars

Don’t need a book of wisdom
I get no money talk at all

She has a train going downtown
She’s got a club on the moon
And she’s telling all her secrets
In a wonderful balloon

She’s the heart of the funfair
She’s got me whistling a private tune
And it all begins where it ends
And she’s all mine, my magic friend

She says, “hello, you fool, I love you
C’mon join the joyride”
Join the joyride

She’s a flower, I could paint her
She’s a child of the sun
We’re a part of this together
Could never turn around and run

Don’t need no fortune teller
To know where my lucky love belongs, whoa no
'Cause it all begins again when it ends, yeah
And we’re all magic friends (magic friends, magic friends)

She says, “hello, you fool, I love you
C’mon join the joyride”
Join the joyride
She says, “hello (hello), you fool (you fool), I love you (I love you)
C’mon join the joyride”
Be a joyrider, ow

I’ll take you on a sky ride
I’m feeling like I’m spellbound
The sunshine is a lady
Who rocks you like a baby

She says, “hello (hello) you fool (you fool) I love you (I love you)
C’mon join the joyride”
Join the joyride
