Tell a little lie
And it gets started
Break a little thread
In the tie that binds
Add another lie
Then they start going
Then it won't be long
Until it's going, going, gone
I'm talking about love
That's the way it goes
Give a cheating look
Off to a stranger
Take a little smile
From across the room
Plant a little seed
And it starts growing
Then it won't be long
Until it's going, going, gone
I'm talking about love
That's the way it goes
Once love is done and
The leaving's coming
The door is closed
No use in knocking
When love is walking
That's the way love
That's the way it goes
Build a little wall
Then build it higher
Never give up
Giving it
Till you take a mile
Never see the tears
Even when they are
Showering
Then it won't take long
Until it's going, going, gone
I'm talking about love
That's the way it goes
That's the way it goes
I'm talking about love
That's the way it goes
I'm talking about love
That's the way it goes


That's the way it goes
I'm talking about love
That's the way it goes
That's the way it goes
