No One Knows About a Good Thing (You Don’t Have to Cry) Curtis Mayfield

[Verse 1]
I know you know he's getting over
The rumors say he's fooling around
Your face sadly pressed upon my shoulder
Too bad to hear, he's putting you down

[Chorus]
'Cause no one knows about a good thing
Until a good thing is gone
Remember when you loved a good thing
To lose one is just no fun
No one knows about a sweet thing
Until the sweet thing is gone
Baby, dry your eyes, you don't have to cry

[Verse 2]
You know I love you, love you so madly, ah yeah
Again you've been pushed
Pushed off to the curb, oh yeah
I begged to take you, I've held you so gladly
Just give me some sign - baby, say the word

[Chorus]
'Cause no one knows about a good thing
Until the good thing is gone
Remember when you loved a good thing
To lose one is just no fun
No one knows about a sweet thing
Until the sweet thing is gone
Baby, dry your eyes, you don't have to cry
