[Verse 1]
You can't say, girl, that I don't love ya
Nights cryin', thinkin' of ya
I don't understand your ways
[Verse 2]
They say true love is forever gladness
All that I feel is sadness
I don't understand your ways
[Chorus]
You keep me walkin' my way back to you
You say you love me then leave me so blue
You break my heart, then you say that we're through
But it's okay
I don't understand your ways
[Verse 3]
What have I done to deserve this madness?
All that I feel is sadness
I don't understand your ways
[Chorus]
You keep me walkin' my way back to you
You say you love me and let's start anew
You break my heart, then say we're through, hey
[Bridge]
No more believin'
In every word you say
Persuasions deceiving
But I'm wise in every way
And I know 'bout your playin'
With every guy in town
So this time I'm sayin'
You won't fool me around
[Chorus]
Then you get me walkin' my way back to you
You say you love me then leave me so blue
You break my heart, then you say that we're through
But it's okay
You're no good
I don't understand your ways
[Verse 4]
One more fool just to love and groove ya
That's all that he wanna do to ya
I don't understand your ways

I tried out a newer, more ethereal voice on Jackie’s “Your Ways,” with the keyboards adding a faraway quality. [Percussionist] Paulinho [da Costa] brought out all the artillery: triangles, skulls, gongs. This song’s about a strange who is the way she is and there’s nothing I can do other than enjoy...
