[Strophe I:]
Two people take a vow to be together
And live and love each other forever
They promise to love a lifetime
Funny thing
Then they change their minds
They both go their seperate ways
And love is just a memory
But a young heart doesn't stay sad long
Another love soon comes along
[Chorus:]
That's the way love is[x4]
[Strophe II:]
Two people don't get along
Deep down in both have feelings very strong
They try hard to conceal it
Their hearts burn 'cause they both know they can feel it
[Chorus]
[Strophe III:]
Lovers leave without a reason
Feelings change just like seasons
In love nothing's for certain
There's no use in pretending what's behind the curtain
[Chorus]
[Strophe IV:]
And sometimes it's so unfair
When the feeling's no longer there
That's the way love is
And sometimes it's gratifying
Love's feeling just ain't no denying
[Chorus]
[Outro:]
It's just the way love is
