Love Is Strange

Lyrics
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 Hey now, listen Anitta, I mean to talk to you on this record I want you to realize how strange love is, baby Try and remember this, OK? This right-- this part right here is for you 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...
