American Splendor movie - Ain't That Peculiar lyrics

rate me

Song by Marvin Gaye<br /><br>

Honey you do me wrong but still i'm crazy about you<br>

Stay away too long and i can't do without you<br>

Every chance you get you seem to hurt me more and more<br>

But each hurt makes my love stronger than before<br>

I know flowers go through rain <br>

But how can love go through pain<br>

<br>

Ain't that peculiar<br>

A peculiar ality<br>

Ain't that peculiar baby<br>

Peculiar as can be<br>

<br>

You tell me lies that should be obvious to me<br>

I've been so much in love with you baby til i don't wanna see<br>

That things you do and say are designed to make me blue<br>

It's a dog gone shame my love for you makes all<br>

Your lies seem true<br>

But if the truth makes love last longer<br>

Why do lies make my love stronger<br>

<br>

Ain't that peculiar<br>

A peculiar ality<br>

Ain't that peculiar baby<br>

Peculiar as can be<br>

<br>

I cried so much just like a child thats lost its home<br>

Maybe baby you think these tears i cry are tears of joy<br>

A child can cry so much until you do everything they say<br>

But unlike a child my tears don't help me to get my way<br>

I know love can last through years<br>

But how can love last through tears<br>

<br>

(repeat chorus)<br>

<br>
