Can'T You Tell a Good Thing When You See It

Can't You Tell A Good Thing?
    Verse 1
I see you walking past my house every morning
but you never seem to notice where you are going
and you never look at anyone in the morning
can't you tell a good thing when it shows?

      Chorus
Can't you tell a good thing when you see it?
Do you get the feeling but you just don't believe it?
Can't you tell a good thing when you see it?
Can't you tell a good thing when it shows?

          Verse 2
I see you walking past my house every morning
but you never see me watching where you are going
don't you ever smile at anyone in the morning
can't you tell a good thing when it shows?

         Repeat Chorus
Can't you tell a good thing when you see it?
Don't you feel that love is real, but just don't believe it?
Can't you tell a good thing when you see it?
can't you tell a good thing when it shows?

Thank you, Anne, it is even nicer as a song I have also recorded and will make a Youtube video next week. The truth about songs like this is that it takes a lot of time and work to get it right. Thanks.
