Varee Is Love

Ohio Players

When I was a young man
There was a pretty young girl that taught me a game of love
She taught me that each letter meant something special
Something special like

"L" means that lately, I've been thinkin' we should be alone
"O" means that only you can understand where I'm comin' from
"V" is for valentine, it means that you've won my heart
Yes, it does now
"E" is for everlasting love that no strong wind can pull apart

(Varee is love)
Varee, woman, don't you know that your name means love to me?
(Varee is love)
Varee, the woman of mine, your name is love
And then you left and the words changed

"L" is for the loneliness since you walked out of my life
"O" means that obviously, love has just passed me by
"V" is for the vicious words that tore our lives apart
"E" is evidently, our love was a lie from the start
And oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

(Varee is love)
Varee, Varee, how could I be so simple as to think you loved me?
(Varee is love)
I'm a fool who's just in love with you

I'll never be able to make you people understand
All I ever wanted was to be your only man
Night after night after night, I sit alone and I cry
And I wonder why
Lord, I wonder why, wonder why, wonder why
I know that a man ain't supposed to cry
But I can't dry these tears from my eyes
And I, I, I, I just can't go on, baby
