Songtexte Why Does Love Get In The Way - Carmen McRae , Ray Bryant

Why does love get in the way so?
What have I done that the son of a gun should pick on me?
A little while ago my heart was serene and bright
Everything seemed alright
Now I've been struck by a charge of dynamite

Why does love lead one astray so?
Tell me why, I want to laugh, I wanna cry
I was gay as a sparrow, 'til Cupid's arrow punctured this perfect day
Why does love get in the way?

A little while ago my heart was serene and gay
Everything seemed okay
And now I suddenly find I've lost my way
Why does love lead one astray so?
Tell me why, I want to laugh, I want to cry

Life was quite unenchanted, all that I wanted
Now it's a passion play
Why does love get in the way?
Why does love get in the way?
