sometimes you can be like a stranger

in moments when you're so far away

in the night when I reach out to hold you

you just turn away, why do you turn away



oh, I love you so when you're smilin'

but your smile has faded overnight

will we stay like this for a lifetime

gettin' nothin' right, gettin' nothin' right



why do we always have stormy weather

why do we have it so rough

is it so hard just to stay close together

why can't we ever have love



oh, I knew from the first time I saw you

I just had to make you mine

felt so sad when you told me

about your troubled life, all about your troubled life



so here we are just a few years further

still tryin' to make it work

I've a feelin' what we really need right now, girl

is just a little love, oh baby, just a little love



why should we always have stormy weather

why should we have it so rough

it's not so hard just to stay close together

why can't we only have love
