I Don't Think Love Ought to Be That Way

No I don't think love ought to be that way
I don't think love ought to be that way
'Cause I don't think love ought to be that way

Oh I love what you're saying it's tempting me so
But there's someone at home who's depending on me
But I don't think love ought to be that way
I could tell him a lie and I know that I'd get by
No I don't think love ought to be that way
I don't think love ought to be that way

But I don't think love ought to be that way
And though he'd never know it if I set my passions free
I don't think love ought to be that way

But I don't think love ought to be that way
I could tell him a lie and I know that I'd get by
And though I love to hear it there's no way that I'll let go
No I don't think love ought to be that way
No I don't think love ought to be that way
But I don't think love ought to be that way

You say a precious moment is all that it would be

I could tell him a lie and I know that I'd get by
No I don't think love ought to be that way
I could tell him a lie and I know that I'd get by
That I'd forget about you and you'd forget me
But I don't think love ought to be that way
I could tell him a lie and I know that I'd get by
