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 grow from rain
But how can love grow from pain

Ain't that peculiar?
A peculiarality
Ain't that peculiar, baby?
Peculiar as can be

Oh, you tell me lies
That should be obvious to me
I've been so much in love with you baby
'Til I don't want to 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 peculiarality
Hey, hey

Huh, huh, huh (huh, huh, huh)
Hey, hey (hey, hey)
Huh, huh, huh (huh, huh, huh)
Hey, hey (Hey hey)
Huh, huh, huh (huh, huh, huh)
Huh, huh, huh (huh, huh, huh)

I cried so much just like a child
That lost its toy
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
A peculiarality
Ain't it peculiar, honey?
Peculiar as can be

Said I don't understand it, baby
It's so strange sometimes
Ain't it peculiar, darlin'?
