(Been hurt by love so many times)
That's how it is
(That's the way love is, sho' 'nuff how it is)
Yeah now, I know you walkin' down a lonesome road
So wipe away your tears
(That's the way love is, sho' 'nuff how it is)
(That's the way love is, sho' 'nuff how it is)
Oh, listen to me little darlin'
(Now is the time to be strong)
I know you feel like you ain't got a friend
You've gotta' forget him now that he's gone
Said nobody knows
Don't let it get the best of you
Oh, and your whole world is cavin' in
Oh, you're left alone and brokenhearted
(That's the way love is, sho' 'nuff how it is)
(Know just what you're goin' through)
Oh oh, my little darlin'
Oh, that's the way, love is sugar
Oh, that's the way, love is honey
(Wish that you were never born)
That's how it is
(That's the way love is, sho' 'nuff how it is)
The one guy you loved has departed
Said I've been hurt by love so many times
Just remember
Love just comes and it goes
(That's the way love is, sho' 'nuff how it is)
(Forget him now that he's gone)
(Whole world is cavin' in)
(Forget him, now that he's gone)
The road of love gets rough sometimes
How long it's gonna' last
And remember, that's the way, love is honey
One day gladness and the next day sadness
That's how it is
I say all of your joys turn to sorrows
Oh but now is the time to be strong
(That's the way love is, sho' 'nuff how it is)
And your heart is carryin' a heavy load
(That's the way love is, sho' 'nuff how it is)
That's the way, love is baby
Oh baby
That's the way, love is baby
Oh, that's how it is my little darlin'
You wish that you were never born
So I know just what you're goin' through
Love is here today, and gone tomorrow
(That's the way love is, sho' 'nuff how it is)
(Feel like you ain't got a friend)
You've got to forget him, now that he's gone
That's the way, love is baby
