A rainbow colors
The autumn sky
So overpowering
You want to cry
Yet no one sees it
But you and I
Strange are the ways of love.
The sunlight kisses
A grain of sand
Those who are lonely
Don't understand
They say it's nothing
We say it's grand
Strange are the ways of love.
The hand of fate
Was long overdue
Yet we were worlds apart
I never dreamed of being with you
Now we're heart to heart.
This is a young land
And young are we
We know how tender
Young love can be
But in my rapture
It seems to me
Strange are the ways of love
Strange are the ways of love.
