[Verse 1]
When I gave it up
You held up
When I ran out
You filled me up
When I kept runnin', well
You kept up
When I let you down, you
Lifted me up
This is the way love is
Yeah!
It's all right
[Verse 2]
I didn't have the words
You understood
When I didn't find the time
Well, you were in no hurry, no
I wouldn't make ends meet, but
You tied them together
And when I cheated
You kept to the rules
[Chorus]
Hey, this is the way love is
This is the way love is
When it's a one-sided, double-minded mirror with no reflection, no
[Verse 3]
When I was keepin' it in
You were givin' out
I was runnin' out
You'd let me come back
When I was holdin' back
You were holdin' on
When I was losin' my cool
You were keepin' my love warm
[Chorus]
Hey, this is the way love is
This is the way love is
When it's a one-sided double-minded mirror with no reflection
This is the way love is
This is the way love is
When it's a one-sided double-minded mirror with no reflection
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
I kept it all to myself
Just like a miser holds on to his last dime
When I closed up myself like a desperate
Hand on a lifeline
Yeah, I was bled
Dry
All wrapped up in my pride
This is the way it is when you're on the wrong side
[Chorus]
Yeah, this is the way love is
This is the way love is
When it's a one-sided double-minded mirror with no reflection, no
Hey, this is the way love is
This is the way love is
When it's a one-sided double-minded mirror with no reflection
Well, this is the way love is
(This is the way)
This is the way love is
(This is the way)
When it's a one-sided double-minded mirror with no reflection
(This is the way)
This is the way love is
(This is the way)
This is the way love is
(This is the way)
This is the way love is
This is the way love is
[Guitar Solo]
[Outro]
Hey, yeah
One-sided, double-minded mirror with no reflection
(Hey!)
Ooh
Yeah
Oh
Ha ha ha
Oh yeah
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Yeah, one-sided, double-minded mirror
One-sided, double-minded mirror
Yeah, one-sided, double-minded mirror with no refle--
Whoo! Yes, this is the way love way
This is the way
This is the way love is
[Spoken Outro]
Well, we've all been sick with colds and flus and all that. We'd thought we'd be pretty miserable up here, but we're not
