Mavis Staples

That's The Way Love Is

Monday's so good

Tuesday's so cruel

One day you're so happy now

The next day you're in tears

So you take it while you find it

Or leave it like it is

That's the way it's always been

That's the way love is

Wednesday's alright

But Thursday's all wrong

One day you're allright with it, baby

The next day it's all gone

So you take it while you find it

Or you can leave it like it is

That's the way it's always been

That's the way love is

Friday you'll beg her

Saturday he'll plead

One day she says' he loves you

The next he might be

So you take it while you find it

Or you can leave it like it is

That's the way it's always been

That's the way love is

It seems no fair sometimes

But that's the way love is

It makes you want to cry

But that's the way love is

I know you don't know

What I'm talking about, baby

'Cause I don't believe

You ever been in love

But that's the way love is
