Gladys Knight & The Pips — Thats The Way Love Is

[Verse 1] As the bitter tears fall from your eyes A thousand times you ask yourself why The one guy you loved has departed And you're left alone and brokenhearted Woah oh, love just comes and goes How long it's gonna last, nobody knows [Chorus] 'Cause that's the way love is Oh, that's the way love is [Verse 2] I know you're walkin' down a lonesome road And your heart's carryin' a heavy load I know you feel like you ain't got a friend And your whole world's cavin' in Won't you listen to me, now's the time to be strong You've gotta forget him now that's he's gone [Chorus] And just remember, that's the way love is Woah oh oh, that's the way love is Won't you listen to me [Verse 3] Love can be a hurting thing (Tell, tell the truth) Or it can be warm as warm as a breath of spring (Tell, tell the truth) When love is present everything is alright (Tell, tell the truth) But when it's gone, you toss and turn all night (Tell, tell the truth) Listen to me, now The road of love gets rough sometimes Don't you let it get the best of you Said I've been hurt by love, oh, yes I have So I know just what you're goin' through I bet you wish that you were never born You've gotta forget him now that he's gone [Chorus] And remember That's the way love is Oh, that's the way love is [Outro] Oh (That's the way love is) (Sure enough how it is) Oh yes it is (That's the way love is) Woah (Sure enough how it is) Love is (That's the way love is) Here today (Sure enough how it is) Gone tomorrow (That's the way love is) All your joys (Sure enough how it is) Turn to sorrow (That's the way love is) First day gladness (Sure enough how it is) Next day
