“The Way You Do the Things You Do” is a wonderful song by The Temptations which I heard again and chose for my musical selection. This song has an easy melody and nice rhythm and rhyme with clever lyrics such as
“You know you could have been a candle
I'm holding you so tight
You know you could have been a handle
The way you swept me off my feet”
I had not heard it in a long time and it was enjoyable listening to this song again. It became a hit single for The Temptations in 1964. The song was written by members of The Miracles Smokey Robinson and Bobby Rogers.
Does anyone know or remember this song?

Definitely remember them. I saw them when they were still doing small venues. They were at a local hotel/motel performing.

Temptations is one of my favorite group of singers. I have to listen to this song by and by for I am about to take my late lunch.
