Lyrics
You know life is a funny thing
Everybody's mixed up about the definition of love, uh-huh
Well, I talked to an old gray-headed lady one day
And I asked her if she would define love for me, mhm
She said, "Love to me is an itching
Of the heart that nobody can scratch"
You better believe that
I walked on down the road a little farther (a little farther)
And I talked to an old man
I said "Mister, will you define love for me, please?"
He said, "Love is a misunderstanding between two damn fools"
I also believe that
Well, I didn't really find out the real meaning
But if I had to talk about the word "love"
I believe it would be something like this
You're pushing my love a little bit too far
Oh, I don't think you know, I don't
Think you know just how blessed you are
And your friend Annie May tell you all she sees
But did she ever tell you she was trying to get a piece from me?
She didn't tell that
Think it over, think it over, girl, think it over
That's the way I feel about ya, oh
That's the way I feel about ya
That's the way I feel about ya, woo
That's the way I feel about ya
Please answer love
If it ever come knocking at your door, it will
'Cause once I done knocking, baby
The world don't give enough of
I know you've been hurt (I know you've been hurt)
But so have I, girl, too (I have, too)
But all you got to do is ask about it
The changes life put you through, huh
I could tell you about it
In fact, I could write a book about it
Misunderstandings and times I've been hurt
Disappointments, misunderstandings
Don't take my love for a sign of weakness
Shake into the situation, girl
You better dig a little deeper, huh
Oh, that's the way I feel about ya, woo
That's the way I feel about ya, hey, hey
That's the way I feel about ya
Oh baby, I'm so glad that's the way I feel about ya
Late, late in the midnight hour, I lay and think about ya
Oh, that's the way I feel about ya
That's the way I feel about ya
That's the way I feel about ya
That's the way I feel about ya
