(originally by Marvin Gaye)

Honey, you do me wrong but I'm still crazy about you
I stay away too long and I can't do without you
But every chance you get you seem to hurt me more and more
But each hurt makes my love grow stronger than before
I know flowers grow from rain
But how can love grow from pain? (Pain, pain, pain)

Oh, ain't that peculiar? (Ain't that peculiar?)
A peculiarity (Ain't that peculiar?)
Ain't that peculiar, baby (Ain't that peculiar?)
Peculiar as can be (Ain't that peculiar?)

Oh, well, you tell me lies that should be obvious to me
But I'm so much in love with you, baby, that 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
But if the truth made love last longer
Why do lies make my love stronger?
(Stronger, stronger, stronger, stronger)

Ain't that peculiar? (Ain't that peculiar?)
Peculiar as can be (Ain't that peculiar?)
Ain't that peculiar, baby? (Ain't that peculiar?)
A peculiarity (Ain't that peculiar?)

Hey hey
Ah-ah-ah (Ah-ah-ah)
Hey hey hey (Hey hey hey)
Ha-ha-ha, yeah (Ha-ha-ha, yeah)
Hey hey hey (Hey hey hey)
Ah-ah-ha (Ah-ah-ha, yeah)
Ah-ha, yeah (Ah-ha, yeah)
Oh yeah

I cried so much just like a child that's lost his toy
But maybe baby you think these tears I cry are tears of joy
But 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?
(Tears, tears, tears, tears)

Ain't that peculiar? (Ain't that peculiar?)
A peculiarity (Ain't that peculiar?)
Ain't that peculiar, baby? (Ain't that peculiar?)
Peculiar as can be (Ain't that peculiar?)

I don't understand it, baby (Ain't that peculiar?)
Oh (Ain't that peculiar?)
Don't understand it (Ain't that peculiar?)
Peculiar as can be (Ain't that peculiar?)
Ain't it peculiar?
