The way that you touched me made me believe
You never love any other the way that you loved me
When you said forever I thought it was true
We'd be together our whole lives through
Well, I got to hand it to you.

Chorus:
You really had me going, stringing me along
You really had me going, baby and now I'm gone.
You put one over on me said I'm the only one
You really had me going, baby and now I'm gone.

You never thought I'd see you in town
Walking and talking and holding the new love you found
You had the laugh when the joke was on me
But you're going cry when you get to see
The way that I love when I leave.

You really had me going, stringing me along
You really had me going, baby and now I'm gone.
I never saw it coming that you could do me wrong
You really had me going, baby and now I'm gone.

Oh you proved you're good with a lie
Are you that good with goodbye
You really had me.

You really had me going, stringing me along
You really had me going, baby and now I'm gone.
And now I'm gone, and now I'm gone
Oh, and now I'm gone...
