| Ah baby
|
| After many tears fall from your eyes
|
| A thousand times you ask yourself why
|
| The one guy you love has departed
|
| You’re left alone and broken-hearted
|
| Love just comes and goes
|
| How long it’s gonna last nobody knows
|
| CHORUS:
|
| That’s the way love is, baby
|
| (That's the way love is, sho' nuff, how it is)
|
| That’s the way love is, baby
|
| (That's the way love is, sho' nuff, how it is)
|
| That’s how it is
|
| I know you’re walkin' down a lonesome road
|
| And your heart is carryin' a heavy load
|
| I know you feel like you ain’t got a friend (ain't got a friend)
|
| And your whole world’s cavin' in (cavin' in)
|
| Ah, but now is the time to be strong (to be strong)
|
| You better forget him now that he’s gone (now that he’s gone)
|
| Remember…
|
| (chorus)
|
| (instrumental)
|
| Listen to me, little darlin'
|
| The road of love is rough sometimes
|
| But don’t let it get the best of you
|
| I’ve been hurt by love so many times
|
| I know just what you’re goin' through
|
| You wish you were never born
|
| You better forget him now that he’s gone
|
| (chorus)
|
| Wipe away your tears
|
| Love is here today and gone tomorrow
|
| (That's the way love is, sugar, how it is)
|
| All your joys turn to sorrow
|
| (That's the way love is, sugar, how it is)
|
| One day gladness, and the next day sadness
|
| (That's the way love is, sugar, how it is)
|
| …and fade |
