[Verse 1: Paul Williams]
Over there sits the man
The man who don't believe in love
And as I sit here watching him
I'm wondering what he's thinking of
Does he know what he's been missing?
The lovely girls he could have been kissing?

[Chorus: Paul Williams & The Temptations]
But there goes the man
The man who don't believe in love

[Verse 2: Paul Williams]
What's that you say? You had a love that broke your heart
Well, just go right on and forget
And make yourself a brand new start
I know her leaving can make you cry
But don't use tears for an alibi

[Chorus: Paul Williams & The Temptations]
But don't bе the man
The man who don't beliеve in love

[Bridge: The Temptations]
Ah, ah, ah, ah
[Verse 3: Paul Williams]
Hey, hey, hey brother
Don't you know, don't you know, don't you know
If one plan don't work, surely another one will
So hold your head up high
Don't let happiness pass you by

[Chorus: Paul Williams & The Temptations]
And don't be the man
The man who don't believe in love

[Outro: Paul Williams & The Temptations]
(The man who don't believe in love)
You don't have to be the man
(The man who don't believe in love)
The man who don't believe in love
(The man who don't believe in love)
Don't let happiness, happiness pass you by
You don't have to use tears for an alibi
(The man who don't believe in love)
Believe me when I tell you
