After The Pain lyrics

Well, I couldn't resist the urge to tell you the end of my story

For all those who wanted to know was there life after the pain

After the pain

You come and love me

And I welcome you

You're a glad sight to see

And after the rain

And all that I have been through

I still can't explain

How I can still love you like I do

But I do, yes, I do

Still love you like I do (After the pain)

Though you still do me like you do (After the pain)

After the pain

We sit and we talk awhile

And I fight with all my might

To hold back the tears from falling with a pleasant smile

And after the rain

I can't believe you got the nerve to still call me, baby

And I try to tell you, No, it ain't so'

But I guess No' just ain't in me

'Cause boy, I still love you like I do (After the pain)

Though you still do me like you do (After the pain)

Yeah, I know you're laughin'

Those of you who heard 'Pain'

Yeah, you're right, I sure did

I said I'd never take him back again

Well, it's a woman's prerogative to change her mind isn't it?

But we do it all the time

Don't laugh, you probably done the same thing too

It's just that you know me and I don't know you

You know one thing, time has taught me that

Havin' a piece of man is better than havin' no man at all

So I'mma just take what I got and work with it

You understand what I mean

And don't you remember thinkin' back just a few years

When people used to try to help you stay together

They find out you're on the verge of breakin' up

They used to cook up a little food and throw a little party

And whisper things in your ear like

'Don't blame Mr. Charlie, Mr. Charlie is just a man

And he's doing the best he can'

I heard 'em say, 'Don't blame Mr. Charlie, Mr. Charlie is just a man

And he's doing the best he can'

That's why I still love you like I do (After the pain)

Though you still do me like you do (After the pain, the pain)

I know that you know it's true

After all I've been through

I should be through with love

But there's a God up above

That keeps sayin', 'Betty try

Don't give up, you know why

The sun is gonna shine

'Cause you are mine, all mine'

You just keep doin' your best

And I will do the rest

'Cause I love you, love you, Betty, like I do

That's why I still love you like I do (After the pain, the pain)

Though you still do me like you do (After the pain, the pain)

My love is deeper than any ocean

And my love is higher than any mountain

It's, oh, it's full of emotion

My love is full of devotion

My love is in and out of season

And I love you with or without a reason

You see God is gonna bless me for lovin' you

For all the times that you treated me wrong and I kept bein' true

You see, God's eyes they're not closed

He's not asleep

Said He's watchin' everything move you make

Every secret you keep

Boy, you better be careful

Hoo....hoo...hoo...hoo...

Said if you treat me bad or make my sad

My Father in heaven is watching you

But I still love you like I do (After the pain)

And no-n-n-no-n-n-no-n-n-nobody's ever gonna love you like I do (After the pain)

No one's ever gonna love you like I do

No one's ever gonna love you like I do

No one's ever gonna love you like I do

I don't know why I do, but I do, yes, I do (After the pain)

Oh...there's a woman in me that keeps on lovin' you (After the pain, the pain)

I don't know why

Oh, I don't know why (I don't know why, baby) (After the pain, the pain)

I don't know why (I don't know why, baby), but I do (I do)

Said I do (I do, I do, I do)

Said I... (After the pain, the pain)

(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa) (After the pain, the pain)

...do, I don't know why, baby (After the pain, the pain)

But I love you so...

Yes, I do (After the pain, the pain)

Baby, don't you know it's true, yes, I do

Baby (After the pain), no strain (The pain)

Still love you after the pain (The pain)

(After the pain)
