Ain't nobody ever prove their love when Things were all good And two people are smiling Love is found way down in the trenches When he's throwin' a fit And she is sittin' there crying We tear it up To patch it up Break up To make up The show goes round and round And that how we get down We go back and forth And anyone who goes through this should know That what I am saying is for real Real love is meant this way We say things that we don't mean And that's the way love works out sometimes He's trippin' She's trippin' And we both be trippin' and That's the way love works out sometimes 'Cause when it's on it's on And your no longer stressin' And life teaches a lesson That love is still a blessin 'Cause when it's all said and done Were back at square one And that's the way love works out sometimes What you know about screamin' yellin' cuzin' pushin', and rumblin' and arguing Like it's 12 rounds up inside the garden I say where the hell you going And you say I'm getting up out of here And I say you ain't going no where Then I follow you down the stairs, Get in front of you and then I scream Times like this I know you're Still the one And the truth is this is really love And oh yeah When I feel like going off I brush my shoulders off And you know We say things that we don't mean And that's the way love works out sometimes He's trippin' She's trippin' And we both be trippin' and That's the way love works out sometimes 'Cause when it's on it's on And your no longer stressin' And life teaches a lesson That love is still a blessin' 'Cause when it's all said and done Were back at square one And that's the way love works out sometimes You won't believe it until you see it How much you need somebody (Need somebody) And you'll never know how far you'll go When you love somebody (Love somebody) Oh oh Sometime we say the craziest things! We say things that we don't mean And that's the way love works out sometimes He's trippin' She's trippin' And we both be trippin' and That's the way love works out sometimes 'Cause when it's on it's on And your no longer stressin' And life teaches a lesson That love is still a blessin' 'Cause when it's all said and done Were back at square one And that's the way love works out sometimes
