Love Is Strange
Ellas McDaniels / Mickey Baker / Sylvia Robinson
Love
Love is strange
Lot of people
Take it for a game
Once you get it
You never wanna quit
After you've had it
You're in an awful fix
Many people
Don't understand
They think loving
Is money in the hand
Your sweet loving
Is better than a kiss
When you leave me
Sweet kisses I miss
"Sylvia!"
"Yes, Mickey?"
"How do you call your lover boy?"
"Come here, lover boy!"
"And if he doesn't answer?"
"Oh lover boy..."
"And if he still doesn't answer?"
"I simply say:
Baby, oh baby
My sweet baby, you're the one!"
Baby, oh baby,
My sweet baby, you're the one
