Marvin Gaye - Ain't That Peculiar [Live]

Lyrics

Honey, you do me wrong but still I'm crazy about you

Stay away too long and I can't do without you

Every chance you get, you seem to hurt me more and more

But each hurt makes my love stronger than before

I know flowers go through rain

But how can love go through pain

Ain't that peculiar

A peculiarity

Ain't that peculiar, baby

Peculiar as can be, oh

You tell me lies that should be obvious to me

Pardon so much in love with you baby 'til I don't want to see

But that things you do and say are designed to make me blue

It's a dog gone shame, my love, for you makes all your lies seem true

But if the truth makes love last longer

Why do lies make my love stronger

Ain't that peculiar, baby

Peculiar as can be

Ain't that peculiar

A peculiarity, yeah yeah

I cried so much just like a child that's lost its home

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, my tears don't help me to get my way

I know love can last through years

But how can love last through tears

Ain't that peculiar, baby

Peculiar as can be

Ain't that peculiar, honey

Peculiar as can be

Said, "I don't understand it, baby"

It's so strange sometimes

Ain't that peculiar, darlin'

Oh
