Ain't That Peculiar

Martin Barre


Honey, you do me wrong, say you'll be honest to me 
I'm so much in love with baby till I don't want to see 
Every chance you get you seem to hurt me more and more 
But each hurt makes my love stronger than before 
I know flower grow through rain 
But how can love grow through pain 

Ain't that peculiar 
Peculiar as can be 
Ain't that peculiar 
Peculiarity 

You tell me lies 
That you'll be honest to me 
But I'm so much in love with baby till I don't want to see 
Cause 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 

If the truth makes love last longer 
Why do lies make my love stronger 

Ain't that peculiar 
Peculiar as can be 
Ain't that peculiar 
Peculiarity 

Hmm, I act just like a child that's lost his toy 
Maybe, baby, you think these tears I cry are tears of joy 
A child can cry so much until you do everything they say 
But unlike a child those tear don't help me to get my way 

I know love can last through years 
How can love last through tears 

Ain't that peculiar 
Peculiar as can be 
Ain't that peculiar 
Peculiarity 

Ain't that peculiar 
Peculiar as can be 
Ain't that peculiar 
Peculiarity
