Fleamaker123 · 08/05/2021 21:13

Oh, I used to love to make you cry
It made me feel like a man inside
If I had been a man in reality
You would be here, baby, loving me

Lots of versions 60's, 70's, 80's

Say hello on a day like today
Say it every time you move
The way that you look at me now
Makes me wish I was you
