As I sit around, watchin' the rain come down
It puts me in the mood
It reminds me of, the first time I met you, girl
And I hear the rain on the windowpane
And it brings back memories
Of the love we made
And the things that we used to do
Yes, and I recall the thrill of it all
When the heat had just begun
Everything was fine, nothing never did go wrong
Chorus:
We had a strong love affair, strong love affair, baby
From the very start
We had a strong love affair, strong love affair, baby
Then you broke my heart
I didn't know what to do
After lovin' you
And I couldn't get a real good start
We had a strong love affair, strong love affair, baby
And I' m still missing you a lot
So when I hear rain, it just brings back pain
You gave the best love I ever had
It's a doggone shame, 'cause it sure felt good to me
Sometimes I wonder, where did you disappear to
How did you get away, baby
And I often think of you
Do you ever think of me, baby
Sometimes love don't work, the way you think it should
When your love jones comes on down, baby
But baby I still care and I think that I always will
Chorus:
We had a strong love affair, strong love affair, baby
From the very start
We had a strong love affair, strong love affair, baby
Then you broke my heart
I didn't know how to act
After your bags were packed
And I couldn't get a real good start
We had a strong love affair, strong love affair, baby
And I'm still lovin' you a lot, oh well
Chorus
