Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Honey, you do me wrong
But still I'm crazy about you
Stay away too long
And I can't do without you
[Verse 2]
Every chance you get you seem to
Hurt me more and more
But each hurt makes my love
Stronger than before
[PreChorus]
I know flowers grow from rain
But how can love grow from pain? (Pain, pain, pain, pain)
[Chorus]
Ain't that peculiar? (Ain't that peculiar?)
A peculiarity (Ain't that peculiar?)
Ain't that peculiar, baby? (Ain't that peculiar?)
Peculiar as can be (Ain't that peculiar?)
[Verse 3]
Oh, you tell me lies
That should be obvious to me
I've been so much in love with you, baby
That I don't want to see
[Verse 4]
But the things you do and say
Are designed to make me blue
It's a doggone shame my love for you
Makes all your lies seem true
[PreChorus]
But if the truth makes love last longer
Why do lies make my love stronger? (Stronger, stronger, stronger, stronger)
[Chorus]
Ain't that peculiar, babe? (Ain't that peculiar?)
Peculiar as can be (Ain't that peculiar?)
Ain't that peculiar? (Ain't that peculiar?)
A peculiarity (Ain't that peculiar?)
Hey, hey
[Bridge]
Ah-ah-huh (Ah-ah-huh)
Hey, hey (Hey, hey)
Ah-ah-huh (Ah-ah-huh)
Hey, hey (Hey, hey)
Ah-ah-ah-uh (Ah-ah-ah-huh)
Ah-ah-huh (Ah-ah-huh)
[Verse 5]
Ooh, I cried so much just like a child
That's lost it toy
Maybe baby, you think these tears I cry
Are tears of joy
[Verse 6]
A child can cry so much
Until you do everything they say
But unlike a child my tears don't help me
To get my way
[PreChorus]
I know love can last through years
But, how can love last through tears? (Tears, tears, tears, tears)
[Chorus]
Ain't that peculiar, baby? (Ain't that peculiar?)
A peculiarity (Ain't that peculiar?)
Ain't that peculiar, honey? (Ain't that peculiar?)
Peculiar as can be (Ain't that peculiar?)
[Chorus]
Said, I don't understand it, baby (Ain't that peculiar?)
It's so strange sometimes (Ain't that peculiar?)
Ain't it peculiar darling? (Ain't that peculiar?)
Oh baby
