How Can This Be Love

[Chorus]
How can this be love if it makes us cry?
How can this be love if it makes us cry?

[Verse 1]
I thought love was everything
I believed in all the good things it would bring
But lately, we have hurt each other bad
And I'm afraid to lose the lovin' that we had

[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to make it good
I did the best I could

[Chorus]
How can this be love if it makes us cry?
How can this be love if it makes us cry?

[Verse 2]
I ask my mama, "What to do?
Is it just a passing thing we're goin' through?"
She said, "Baby, don't be blue
If you get through this, you know your love is true"

[Pre-Chorus]
We tried to make it good
We did the best I could

[Chorus]
How can this be love if it makes us cry?
How can this be love if it makes us cry?

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to make it good, I did the best I could
We tried and tried, we cried and cried
We did the best we could

[Chrous]
How can this be love if it makes us cry? (Woah)
How can this be love if it makes us cry? (Woah, woah)
How can this be love if it makes us cry?
How can this be love if it makes us cry?
Tell me, mama (Woah)
How can this be love if it makes us cry? (Woah)
How can this be love if it makes us cry? (Woah, woah)
How can this be love if it makes us cry? (Woo!)
How can this be love if it makes us cry?
