That's How Love Is - Jackson 5

I'm trying to get to first base

With that little girl I love

But my technique is much too weak

The game is gettin' rough

Strike one, she almost broke my heart

Strike two, she had the nerve

And when I wasn't looking

She struck me out with a curve

That's how love is

That's how love's supposed to be

That's how love is

Hey boys, take it from me

That's how love is

That's how love's supposed to be

That's how love is

Hey boys, take it from me

Put on the gloves, jumped in the ring

And I heard the first bell sound

When she put her arms around me

I knew I won the first round

The tighter she held me

I knew I was gonna last

When I waved to a girl at ringside

She knocked me flat on my

That's how love is

That's how love's supposed to be

That's how love is

Hey boys, take it from me

That's how love is

That's how love's supposed to be

That's how love is

Hey boys, take it from me

Jermaine, you're a little older

Give me some philosophy

How can I win the game of love

And make 'em come runnin' to me?

Listen Michael, you win a little bit, lose a little bit

It's all in the game, I see

It doesn't matter if you win or lose

It all turns out the same

That's how love is

That's how love's supposed to be

That's how love is

Well, I know, take it from me

That's how love is

That's how love's supposed to be

Michael, that's how love is

Well, I know, take it from me

Sing it to me, sing it to me

Sing it to me, sing it to me

That's how love is

That's how love's supposed to be

That's how love is, take it from me

Come on, come on

That's how love is, love's supposed to be

That's how love is

That's how love is

Ooh, yeah
