We used to south of paradise
That was okay until you put your heart on ice
Walked out the door but you couldn't say goodbye
Hide away and left me lonely
When I asked you why
You wouldn't be precise
Now it's my turn, start taking my advice

It's not the way that you love me
It's not the way that you care

Running down long back alleys
Pouting like a spoiled child
You've been acting so crazy, driving me wild
Your heart is like an elevator
You tell me that's just human nature
I've done all I can, I can't seem to change you

It's not the way that you love me
It's not the way that you care

Oh no, it's not the way
Oh no, it's not the way
Listen mister to what I say
Oh no, it's not the way

Your love is like a nasty habit
I finally got control but I just can't take it
I tried to be cool but I just can't make it
Your heart is like an elevator
You tell me that it's just human nature
I've done all I can, but just can't change you

Oh no, it's not the way
Oh no, it's not the way
Listen mister to what I say
Oh no, it's not the way
Oh no, it's not the way
Listen mister to what I say
Oh no, it's not the way

Love is tough, love is tender
Love will make your heart surrender
Love is sweet, love is kind
Love will always blow your mind

It's not the way that you love me
It's not the way that you care

Oh no, it's not the way
Oh no, it's not the way
Listen mister to what I say
Oh no, it's not the way
Oh no, it's not the way
Listen mister to what I say
Oh no, it's not the way
Oh no, it's not the way
Listen mister to what I say
Oh no, it's not the way
Oh no, it's not the way
Listen mister to what I say.
