Gladys Knight & The Pips The Going Ups And The Coming Downs lyrics

One day you say you love me
The next day its goodbye
The next you say you're sorry
And you wanna give it one more try

Ooh, the way you change your mind
Time and time again
Well, I don't know if I'm behind
Or just about to end, hey, hey

Certain lies, smiles and frowns
The goin' ups
(Goin' ups, goin' ups)
And the comin' downs
(Goin' ups, comin' downs)

One minute you're warm and lovin'
The next your hearts grown cold
The way you keep me guessin'
Is killin' my soul

Ooh, just when my hopes run high
And I think I've got it made
Hey, hey, along comes a rainy day
To rain on my parade, hey, hey, hey

Certain lies, smiles and frowns
The goin' ups
(Goin' ups, goin' ups)
And the comin' downs
(Goin' ups, comin' downs)

I don't know just what it is about you
That keeps me from walkin' out the door
Just when I think that I can get along without you
You just say something nice
And I come struttin' back for more


One day our world's a dream
Next it falls apart
I don't even think you know
What you're doin' to my heart

I guess I'll never learn
Some people never do
But when I feel like givin' up
I just can't give up on you, hey, hey, hey

Certain lies, smiles and frowns
The goin' ups
(Goin' ups, goin' ups)
And the comin' downs
(Goin' ups, comin' downs)
Hey, hey, hey

Certain lies, smiles and frowns
The goin' ups
(Goin' ups, goin' ups)
And the comin' downs
(Goin' ups, comin' downs)

Certain lies, smiles and frowns
The goin' ups
(Goin' ups, goin' ups)
And the comin' downs
(Goin' ups, comin' downs)
Hey, hey, hey, hey

Certain lies, smiles and frowns
The goin' ups
