Because your love has passed me by
You took me by surprise

Time goes slowly but carries on
And now the best years have come and gone
You took me by surprise
I didn't realize that you were laughing
Chorus:
Laughing - because you're doing it to me
Laughing - that ain't the way it should be
You took away everything I had
You put the hurt on me
Laughing - because you're doing it to me
Laughing - oh, what you're doing to me
You took away everything I had
A [1: repeat intro 2: to coda]

After losing at the game

Laughing - ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
