Ray Charles - Strong Love Affair lyrics

(William "Billy" Osborne)

As I sit around, watchin' the rain come down

It puts me in the mood

It reminds me of, the first time I met you, girl

And I hear the rain on the windowpane

And it brings back memories

Of the love we made

And the things that we used to do

Yes, and I recall the thrill of it all

When the heat had just begun

Everything was fine, nothing never did go wrong

Chorus:

We had a strong love affair, strong love affair, baby

From the very start

We had a strong love affair, strong love affair, baby

Then you broke my heart

I didn't know what to do

After lovin' you

And I couldn't get a real good start

We had a strong love affair, strong love affair, baby

And I' m still missing you a lot

So when I hear rain, it just brings back pain

You gave the best love I ever had

It's a doggone shame, 'cause it sure felt good to me

Sometimes I wonder, where did you disappear to

How did you get away, baby

And I often think of you

Do you ever think of me, baby

Sometimes love don't work, the way you think it should

When your love jones comes on down, baby

But baby I still care and I think that I always will

Chorus:

We had a strong love affair, strong love affair, baby

From the very start

We had a strong love affair, strong love affair, baby

Then you broke my heart

I didn't know how to act

After your bags were packed

And I couldn't get a real good start

We had a strong love affair, strong love affair, baby

And I'm still lovin' you a lot, oh well

Chorus
