Or you can lie around in roses
Or maybe walk around wondering
You know, going through the motions

Hey, ain't love strange?
Oh, ain't love strange?
Boy, talk about changes
Oh, ain't love strange?

Well, it can make you string barbed-wire
Around your little piece of ground

Giving and denying it

Trying to make sense of it
Oh, because it can feel like perfection

Hey, ain't love strange?
Oh, ain't love strange?
Boy, talk about changes
Oh, ain't love strange?

Ain't love strange?
Oh, ain't love strange?
Boy, talk about lonely
Hey, ain't love strange?
