Well, I've heard about a love that's like a memory
And I've heard about a love that's like dream
Said, 'I've heard about a love that's always fightin''
It's the strangest kind that you've ever seen

And I've heard about a love that never quits man
Let me tell you 'bout a love runnin' outta steam
And then there's a love that can't stop cryin'
It's the strangest kind that you've ever seen

Well, there's a love flashin' like a lightnin'
And there's a love crawlin' on it's knees
And there's a love so strong that it's frightnin'
Well, that's the kind of love I'm a wantin' to see

You know I've heard about a love that can make you whisper
And I've heard about a love oughta make ya scream
And I've heard about a love, nothin' but hatred
It's the strangest kind that you've ever seen

Well, there's a love flashin' like a lightnin'
And there's a love crawlin' on it's knees
And there's a love so strong that it's frightnin'
Well, that's the kind of love I'm a wantin' to see

You know I've heard about a love like 'Old Delilah'
And I've heard about a love like you and me
And I've heard about a love like my mom and pop have
It's the strangest kind that you've ever seen
Yes, it's the strangest kind that you've ever seen
I know it's the strangest kind that you've ever seen, yeah
