Strange I Know lyrics

It's strange I know
But that's the way it goes
Leaving you this way
I'm sorry to say
That my love has faded, faded away

It happened while you were gone
You stayed away too long
You didn't write or even call
I thought you didn't care at all

I was sad as I could be
When fate brought this fellow to me
But oh how I tried to resist him
But my heart told me to keep him

It's strange I know
But that's the way it goes
Leaving you this way
I'm sorry to say

When you get home
I'll be gone
Ask my mother for your letter
That I put aside
When you finish the letter
I'll be Eddie's bride

It's strange I know
But that's the way it goes
Leaving you this way
But that's the way it goes

It's strange I know
But that's the way, that's the way, that's the way, that's the way it goes
It's strange I know
