Ain't Love The Strangest Thing

Momma's little baby's gone bad

From her lips down to her shoes

She's went and sold everything she had

She bought a ticket to the blues

There was silence when you left here

I remember not a tear that fell

Now we cry like little children

On a broken down carousel

Ain't love the strangest thing

They say that lovers have their secrets

That no one else can hear

Sometimes a whispered heartbeat

And sometimes they disappear

Ain't love the strangest thing

It picks you up

And brings you down

It's a miracle

Goes round and round

It makes you laugh

It makes you cry

Ain't love the strangest thing

Oh I been wonderin'

As the night goes beggin'

Baby, can't you hear my plea?

Oh I've been thinkin' about it

Before the night is over

Oh baby, you could be lyin' here next to me

It picks you up

And brings you down

It's a miracle

Goes round and round

It makes you laugh

It makes you cry

From black and blue

You wonder why

Secret vows and deceptions

In every lousy hotel room

And in the face, in the face of every stranger

You're seeing someone that you knew

Ain't love the strangest thing

It picks you up

And brings you down

It's a miracle

Goes round and round

It makes you laugh

It makes you cry

From black and blue

You wonder why

Ain't love the strangest thing (to fade)

Makes you wonder why

Keeps you holding on
