The Lovin' Spoonful — You Didn't Have to Be so Nice lyrics

Lyrics

Today I said the time was right for me to follow you
I knew I’d find you in a day or two
And it’s true
You came upon a quiet day
You simply seemed to take your place
I knew that it would be that way
The minute that I saw your face
And when we’ve had a few more days
(when we’ve had a few more days)
I wonder if I’ll get to say
(wonder if I’ll get to say)
You didn’t have to be so nice
(be so nice)
I would have liked you anyway
(would have liked…)
Today I said the time was right for me to follow you
(…today said that the time was right to follow you)
I knew I’d find you in a day or two
(I knew that I would find you in a day or two)
And it’s true
