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

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

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
