Love Is Strange

I wanna tell you about love. Yeah. All my friends used to tell me that love is a strange thing, and I didn't find out until... Honestly now, I think it was about... Three weeks ago I found out how strange love was. Then I found out the-- the true meaning of real loneliness. You know, you ain't lonely until you've really been alone. That's when you're alone at night and you're looking at your things, and you're waiting for the phone to ring and the telephone don't ring, you see. Then you-- you call your friends but your friends, they take their phone off the hook because they're making love to their old ladies, and their old man... Yeah. Then sometimes you call up the operator and you just ask the operator, you say "what time it is?", just so you can hear somebody's voice. You turn on the TV, but they got movies that you don't like so... Love is strange, babe

Mmm, yeah, yeah

Love
Love is strange
Many people
Take it for a game

Once you try it
You don't wanna quit it
Once you got it
You can't get rid of it
No, no, no
Love is strange

That low note! That's how strange love is, baby, right down there
Now I'm gonna tell about the love between a man and a woman, that's some sweet love...
Then you got the love between a man and his mother, and a woman and her mother
And a father and his son, his warrior
Then you got the love between woman and a woman and a man and a man, uh-hm
Then you got the love between god and woman and man...
You got the love between the devil and the people of this earth...
That doesn't mean love, you can see it in all of the wars and all on the killing and the worng doing and the deceiving

Oh, love, love, love, love, love
Love is so strange
Many people
They don't understand
They think that loving
Is money in hand
Oh, money, money, money, money, money in hand

I want you to realize how strange love is, baby

Woo-hoo
Love is so strange, so strange, oh so strange, yeah
I went down the road and I saw a man and a woman
They were killing in Jesus name, oh
I said they were killing in the name of their god
Killing in the name of their god, of their Jesus

Get yourself together
I'm gonna leave you now
Love is as strange as you want it to be
Just like you're as free as you wanna be
Now they said to me: "Hey, we want you to do some songs", so I'm doing these songs for you, babe
Ok, I hope you're gonna dig it, If you don't dig it...
