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
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
