|
He stumbled through the alley with his long coat on |
|
Nothing but a bottle in his hand |
|
She sat in her apartment lonesome to the bone |
|
Wondering what had happened to her man |
|
Chorus: |
|
Love, love, love, love |
|
Nobody ever understands |
|
All the things that go, |
|
Between a woman and a man. |
|
When they'd walk down the sidewalk the street would shine |
|
With the kind of love no human heart can fake |
|
And they vowed to stay together till the end of time |
|
Like the couple that stands on top of the wedding cake |
|
Repeat chorus: |
|
If i should live to a ripe old age |
|
The only lesson i may ever learn |
|
Is to not stand so close to the flame of love |
|
Unless you are willing to get burned |
|
Repeat chorus: |
|
All the things that go, |
|
Between a woman and a man. |
