Lyrics

[Verse 1] You do me wrong, but I'm still crazy 'bout you Stay away too long and I can't do without you Every chance you get, you seem to hurt me more and more Each hurt just makes my love stronger than before [Pre-Chorus] I know flowers grow to rain But how can love grow with pain? [Chorus] Ain't that peculiar, a peculiar-ality Ain't that peculiar, baby As peculiar as can be [Verse 2] You tell me lies that you'll be honest with me I'm so in love that I don't want to see The things you do and say, or desire to make me blue It's a doggone shame that our love Makes all your lies seem true [Pre-Chorus] If the truth makes love last longer Why do lies make my love stronger? [Chorus] Ain't that peculiar, a peculiar-ality Ain't that peculiar, baby As peculiar as can be [Verse 3] I've cried so much just like a child that lost his toy Baby baby, you think these tears I cry are tears of joy A child can cry so much until you do everything they say Unlike a child, my tears don't help me get my way [Pre-Chorus] I know that love can last for years But how can love last through tears? [Chorus] Ain't that peculiar, a peculiar-ality Ain't that peculiar, baby A-peculiar as can be Ain't that peculiar, honey A peculiar-ality Ain't that peculiar, baby As peculiar as can be [Outro] Ain't that peculiar, a peculiar-ality Ain't that peculiar, baby A-peculiar as can be, ho-do-do do-do Ho-do-do do-do do-do do do, do-do do do Do do do-do, do-do do do do do Do-do-do-do-do-do do-do do do Hoo-do, do do do-do-do-do-do-do hoo-do Hoo-do-do-do do-do, do-do do-do do do do-do Do-do-do-do do, hoo-do-do-do Do-do do-do, hoo-do-do-do-do
