[Verse 1]
When I gave up
You held up
When I ran out
You filled me up
When I kept runnin'
You kept up
When I let you down, you lifted me up
This is the way love is
All right
[Verse 2]
When I couldn't find the words
You understood
When I didn't find the time
You were in no hurry
When I wouldn't make ends meet
You tied them together
And when I cheated, you kept to the rules
[Chorus]
Hey
This is the way love is
This is the way love is
When it's a one-sided, double-minded mirror with no reflection
[Verse 3]
When I was keepin' it in
You were givin' out
When I was losin' out
You'd let me come back
When I was holdin' back
You were holdin' on
When I was losin' my cool, you were keepin' your love warm
[Chorus]
Hey, this is the way love is
This is the way love is
When it's a one-sided double-minded mirror with no reflection
Yeah, this is the way love is
This is the way love is
When it's a one-sided double-minded mirror with no reflection
Hey!
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
I kept it all to myself
Just like a miser holds on to his last dime
When I closed up myself like a desperate hand on a lifeline
Well I was bled
Dry
Wrapped up in my pride
This is the way it is when you're on the wrong side
[Chorus]
Yeah, this is the way love is
This is the way love is
When it's a one-sided double-minded mirror with no reflection
Hey, this is the way love is
This is the way love is
When it's a one-sided double-minded mirror with no reflection
Hey, this is the way love is
(This is the way)
This is the way love is
(This is the way)
When it's a one-sided double-minded mirror with no reflection
Whoa, whoo!
This is the way love is
(This is the way)
This is the way love is
(This is the way)
This is the way love is
This is the way love is
[Guitar Solo]

Probably one of the best things we’ve ever done. The funniest thing about this one was Marky’s original home demo of the song, which featured him trying to sing like me! Of course, this phenomenon has always been quit...
