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 grow through rain
But how can love grow through pain
Ain't that peculiar baby
A peculiarity
Ain't that peculiar baby
Peculiar as can be

You tell me lies that should be obvious to me
I've been so much in love with you baby til I don't wanna see
That 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 baby
Peculiar as can be
Ain't that peculiar
A peculiarity

I cried so much just like a child that's lost its home
Maybe baby you think theses 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 get my way
I know love can last through years
But how can love last through tears
Ain't that peculiar baby
A peculiarity
Ain't that peculiar baby
Peculiar as can be
