Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I always thought that our relationship was good
You played the role of having sense, I always played the fool
Now something's different, I don't know the reason why
Whenever we separate, I almost wanna cry
[Verse 2]
Oh no, please not that again
Love rears up its ugly head
[Verse 3]
And when I come home late, you don't complain or call
So, as a consequence, I don't go out at all
My friends are frightened, they don't know what's goin' on
They think you put a spell on me and now my mind is gone
[Verse 4]
Oh no, please not that again
Love rears up its ugly head
Yeah-yeah-yeah, its ugly head
[Verse 5]
Love's not so bad, they say
But you never know where love is gonna go
[Verse 6]
Does anybody really know, oh?
Check this out
[Verse 7]
I'm standin' at the altar and they play the wedding march
I'm in a black tuxedo with my collar full of starch
Oh, she looks lovely as she's ever gonna get
I wake up from this nightmare in a pool of sweat
[Verse 8]
Oh, no, no, no, no, not that again, yeah
I'm not going, I'm not goin' when love rears up its ugly head
[Verse 9]
No, not me, nah
No, no, not me when
Love rears up its, love rears up its ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly head
What you gonna do, Lord?
What you gonna do when it comes and gets you
Ow
