Cher Album

When you meet a boy
That you like a lot
And you fall in love
But he loves you not

If a flame should start
As you hold him near
Better keep your heart
Out of danger, dear

For the way of love
Is a way of woe
And the day may come
When you'll see him go

Then what will ya do
When he sets you free
Just the way that you
Said goodbye to me

REPEAT ALL 4 VERSES

That's the way of love
The way of love

I was born in the wagon of a travellin' show
My mama used to dance for the money they'd throw
Papa would do whatever he could
Preach a little gospel, sell a couple bottles of Doctor Good

CHORUS
Gypsys, tramps, and thieves
We'd hear it from the people of the town
They'd call us Gypsys, tramps, and thieves
But every night all the men would come around
And lay their money down

Picked up a boy just south of Mobile
Gave him a ride, filled him with a hot meal
I was sixteen, he was twenty-one
Rode with us to Memphis
And papa woulda shot him if he knew what he'd done

CHORUS

I never had schoolin' but he taught me well
With his smooth southern style
Three months later I'm a gal in trouble
And I haven't seen him for a while, uh-huh
I haven't seen him for a while, uh-huh

She was born in the wagon of a travellin' show
Her mama had to dance for the money they'd throw
Grandpa'd do whatever he could
Preach a little gospel, sell a couple bottles of Doctor Good

CHORUS CHORUS FADES

They go off and leave me behind
They have so many words to find
I run to catch a glimpse of them
Just walking in the sun
Knowing they'll be mine again
When the evening has begun
And when I see them hand in hand
The boy who walks beside the man
I pray that I will always have the world
That I have found
The husband and the son
That I built my life around

CHORUS:
He'll never know of that night long ago
He'll never know it's locked in my mind
No he'll never know
From the feelings I show
He'll never know
His son is only mine

Sometimes I lie awake at night
Watching darkest turn to light
Thinking back on all the things
I said to him today
Wondering if I might had a careless word to say
When the morning's almost here
He reaches out to draw me near
Silently I search his face for the love
I hope to see and once again
I'm sure that all his love belongs to me

Chorus

[No lyrics]

When you find out where you¡Їre goin¡Ї
Let me know
Cause I love you just enough
To let you go

While you¡Їre running free and clear
Please don¡Їt disappear
When you find out where you¡Їre goin¡Ї
Let me know

When you find out where you¡Їre goin¡Ї
Count me in
And I¡Їll never put you down
For where you been
And I¡Їll join you when you find
That peace within your mind
When you find out where you¡Їre goin¡Ї
Let me know

I¡Їm letting go for one night
And I know we¡Їll be all right
Though he may never come back
When he leaves my bed tonight

When you find out where you¡Їre goin¡Ї
Let me know
And I promise I won¡Їt say I told you so
And when the time comes that you say
You finally found your way
Then no matter where you are
Be sure I know
Then no matter where you are
Be sure I know

The road is long, with many a winding turns
That leads us to who knows where,
Who know where
But I'm strong, strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

So on we go, his welfare is my concern
No burden is he to bare, we'll get there
For I know he would not encumber me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

If I'm laden at all, I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart isn't filled with gladness
Of love for one another
It's a long, long road from which there is no return
While we're on our way to there, why not share
And the load, it doesn't weigh me down at all
He's my brother, he's my brother

You were the only thing I had
How could a good love go so bad
Somehow I guess I should have known
That you would leave me here alone

They say you found somebody new
But that won't change my love for you
How could you leave me on my own
You know I hate to sleep alone

Remember how it used to be
When you were here with me
You were the only one I've known
And how I hate to sleep alone

Someday, some way, somebody new
Will make you feel the way that I do
But I just wish that you'd come home
You know that I hate to sleep alone

But I just wish that you'd come home
You know that I hate to sleep alone

Don¡Їt makes no difference
If you lay down and cry
You know that you lied to me
And if you come to me
With tears in your eyes
Don¡Їt say good-bye
Just leave

CHORUS:
Cause I¡Їm in the middle of something
I don¡Їt understand
How can my reasons for living
Slip right through my hands
I¡Їm in the middle of something
I don¡Їt understand
And if looks like I lose again

Don¡Їt make no difference
What you think of me
You know that I¡Їm restless and afraid
And if you love me
I know that you will see
You can¡Їt keep me
To the promises that I made

Chorus

Don¡Їt make no difference
What you think about me
After all you took me for a ride
Now every night with you
I still seem to find
I just can¡Їt keep you satisfied

Chorus x 2 fade

I know we can make it baby
If only we try
Let¡Їs hang on to love
And don¡Їt let it die
Even though

CHORUS:
It¡Їs been touch and go
Off and on
Weak and strong
But then we didn¡Їt know
That with hope, we could cope
With all the ups and downs
So please stay around
I need you so

I¡Їd give you a bed of roses
Right here in my arms
But you got to take
The sweet with the thorns
And I know

Chorus x 3 fade

I can't find a four-leaf cover anymore
I could find it if I wanted to
I believe if you put your mind to something
Well there ain't anything in this world
You could not do

But I can't find one honest man
Why can't I find me one honest man
Don't understand

The only thing I ever wanted
Was a little bouquet of truth from him
But it gave me all the things
You can't build love on
And I am on the wrong side
Of a broken heart again

CHORUS:
Why can't I find one honest man
Why can't I find me one honest man
Don't understand

If a little bitty candle
Can light of the darkness
Why can't it shine it's way through
I've been waiting a very, very, very long time
Ain't no man ever gonna be true

Don¡Їt understand
Ain't there a man for me

Chorus x 3 fade
