Ain’t It Strange Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ain’t it strange
How everybody says I love you
Ain’t it a shame
How a word can't tell you more than words can say

I need you here
Ain’t it strange
‘Cause I’m always thinkin' of ya
Ain’t it a shame
How a thought can catch the breeze and blow away
I need you here


[Chorus]
Oh, but I know how bad it can get (How bad it can get)
But I don’t mind
Baby, I don’t mind (I, I don't mind)

But I know how soon you’ll forget me (Soon we'll forget)
But time keeps blaring
Baby, time takes care of me


[Verse 2]
Ain't it strange
How a man who lives for nothing can change

'Cause if he stays the same he’ll die a million days
Year by year
There’s a drain
At the bottom of the ocean
And when it rains
We'll get close to where the water meets the sky
For you and I

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
