I've been throwing horseshoes over my left shoulder I've spent most of my life searching for that four leaf clover Yet you run with me chasing my rainbow Honey I love you too that's the way love goes That's the way love goes babe back to music God made Over the whole wide world to sing it never gets old it only grows Losing makes me sorry you say, "Honey don't worry" Honey I love you too that's the way love goes Honey I love you too that's the way love goes
