[Intro: Bobby Brown]
Drop, drop, drop, drop it
Yeah

[Verse 1: Bobby Brown]
You are so special to me
It's got me going crazy
You don't know how I feel about you
It makes me do the things I do, girl, that's

[Pre-Chorus: Bobby Brown & Background Singers]
(That's the way I feel)
That's the way I feel
It makes me feel so good inside
(Makes me feel so real)
Makes me feel so real
And that's the way love is

[Chorus: Background Singers & Bobby Brown]
It can make you laugh (Make you laugh)
It can make you cry (Make you cry)
Feels so good inside
That's the way love is
It can make you change (Make you change)
There's no one to blame (No one to blame)
Makes you go insane
That's the way love is
(Check this out)

[Verse 2: Bobby Brown]
You gave me love, you gave me joy
You were there through the thick and thin
And I don't know what I'll do without you
You've been there for me and I'll be there for you

[Pre-Chorus: Bobby Brown & Background Singers]
(That's the way I feel)
That's the way I feel
It makes me feel so good inside
(Makes me feel so real)
Makes me feel so real
'Cause that's the way love is

[Chorus: Background Singers & Bobby Brown]
It can make you laugh (It can make you laugh)
It can make you cry (Make you cry)
Feels so good inside
(Feels so good inside, that's the way love is)
That's the way love is
It can make you change (Make you change)
There's no one to blame (No one to blame)
Makes you go insane
That's the way love is (Kick it)

[Bridge: Bobby Brown]
Ow, dance, ha ha
Ayo, check this out

[Verse 3: Aqil Davidson]
That's the way it is?
Baby, I'm a perfect match to attach
That's the way you work it
One hand washing the other
And you're not watching another man
And he's not watching some other woman
No need to let the tough times leave a frown
Erase your blue face now, baby, you're with the Brown
He's here to take care of you like your doctor
Don't sweat nothin', Bob, she got ya
That's the way love is

[Chorus: Background Singers & Bobby Brown]
(Love is) It can make you laugh (It can make you laugh)
It can make you cry (Make you cry)
Feels so good inside
(Feels so good inside, that's the way love is)
That's the way love is (Kick, kick it)

[Refrain: Bobby Brown]
That's the way love is
That's the way love is
That's the way love is
That's the way love is
That's the way love is
That's the way love is
That's the way love is
That's the way love is, baby

[Chorus: Background Singers & Bobby Brown]
It can make you laugh (Oh baby)
It can make you cry (I need you, baby)
Feels so good inside
That's the way love is (It can make you go insane)
It can make you change (Yeah, baby)
There's no one to blame (Yeah, baby)
Makes you go insane (Kick, kick)
That's the way love is (Kick, kick it)

[Outro: Bobby Brown]
That's the way, that's the way, that's the way
That's the way love is
That's the way, that's the way, that's the way
That's the way love is

Bobby Brown

The King of New Jack Swing. Bobby Brown has never been afraid to push the envelope – musically, artistically or socially. His sheer bravery and brash honesty are the very characteristics that make him “Bobby Brown” – a pioneering entertainer with over three decades of experience. From his successful debut in New Edition, the boy band prototype for groups like New Kids on the Block, Boyz II Men and the Backstreet Boys, to his multi-platinum career as a solo artist, Brown has left a mark on the music industry that can never be erased.
