A Breath Taking GuyThe Marvelettes

Songwriter: Smokey Robinson

Producer: Terry Johnson Smokey Robinson

[Verse 1]
One night you held me tight
And whispered in my ear
All night sweet words (sweet words)
I never heard (never heard)
And I believed every word

[Verse 2]
Next day you came my way
Without a word to say you passed me by
You didn't bat an eye (bat an eye)
Oh darling won't you tell me why
You're acting strange towards me
Why have you changed towards me?

[Chorus]
Are you just a breathtaking
First sight soul-shaking
One night love-making
Next day heartbreaking guy?

Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah

[Verse 3]
That night your love was true
The next day we were through
Your love was gone
And you were moving on (moving on)
And I was left to cry alone
What have I done to you baby?
Or was it just fun to you?

[Chorus]
Are you just a breathtaking
First sight soul-shaking
One night love-making
Next day heartbreaking guy?

Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah

Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah

[Chorus]
Are you just a breathtaking
First sight soul-shaking
One night love-making
Next day heartbreaking guy?

[Repeat in the background until end]
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah

[Outro]
Ooh I wanna know, yeah
Breathtaking guy
Don't you know he took my breathe away
Oh, breathtaking guy
Oh, you promised me that you would stay
Oh, heartbreaking, soul-shaking, love-making, breathtaking guy
Oh, heartbreaking, soul-shaking, love-making, breathtaking guy
