Why do you look at me as if you never saw
Someone who's been hurt this way before?
Isn't unusual it happens to more than one
'Got to learn to take it as it comes

He doesn't mean it though he does it every time
He hits when he can't find the words
Must be his background it happened to him that way
Says his hurting a lot more than me

When the storm has blown over, the bruising's begun
He physically proves to me I'm his "only one"
I'm left wondering - am I wrong
To keep on believing that we belong?
My bones are aching, the tears still flow,
A voice keeps telling me I ought to know
It's just his way of loving me... His way...

Don't try to tell me I will lose my mind
If I live with a man like him
Do you know him, do you ever see him cry like I do?
I never dreamed love could be like war,
Turn to blows when we can't have our way
Is the reason - human nature?
Does he really hurt more than me?

When the storm has blown over, the bruising's begun
He physically proves to me I'm his "only one"
I'm left wondering - am I wrong
To keep on believing that we belong?
My bones are aching, the tears still flow,
A voice keeps telling me I ought to know
It's just his way of loving me... His way...

"At the end of a lifetime you've made your mistake
You've taken even more than you were able to take
The love in his eyes out of range
And you realise, 'too late to change'
Your bones are aching again and again"...

I've got to find a way to believe my pain
Woh, I say it's his way of loving me, his way of loving me.
