Oh sweet baby, troubles on the line
I'm runnin' low and I think you know
It's just a matter of time
Oh this doubt I'm feelin', spreads like a burnin' fire
It's a sad and lonely feelin' when you lose that old desire.
Something's come between us
Feels like a heartache to me
Hey that ain't the way love's supposed to be
Oh no
Said, hey that ain't the way love's supposed to be.
We've seen so many changes
We've been lovers and we've been strangers
Lately I find I'm alone with my mind
I stay awake untill dawn
Been lookin' for reasons and answers to questions
I guess I've already known
Been loosin' control and I've just gotta know
Baby what's goin' on.
Something's come between us
Feels like a heartache to me
Hey that ain't the way love's supposed to be
I Said, hey that ain't the way love's supposed to be.
Wherever it takes you, whatever it makes
You gotta keep yourself from losin'
If you keep lookin' back, you know it's a fact
You can't win so you keep on using.
Something's come between us
Feels like a heartache to me
Hey that ain't the way love's supposed to be
Oh no
I Said, hey that ain't the way love's supposed to be
Hey that ain't the way love's supposed to be...
