Artist: Mary Wells
LP/CD: The One Who Really Loves You ~~ Motown ~~ 1962
Composer: William Robinson


Laughing boy
That’s what they used to call you
Before you found a new love to take my place

Laughing boy
That’s what they used to call you
You always wore a smile upon your face

But as I look at you now, I know that somehow
The smile you’re wearin’ is untrue
Laughing boy
I think you’re blue

Your new love
She really must have hurt you
She really must have filled your heart with pain

‘Cause I know you well
And you could never fool me
I know that somehow you’re not the same

As I look at you now, I know that somehow
When you say you’re happy, you’re lying
Laughing boy
I believe you’ve been crying

Don’t you know that it’s true, I still love you
Just as much as I did before
So laughing boy come on home
Laughing boy come on home
Laughing boy and smile once more
