That's the Way Love Goes
Chasing Rainbows of Love: Bing Crosby's Musical Odyssey
Lyrics
I've been throwing horseshoes
I've been engaged in the game of throwing horseshoes.
Over my left shoulder
Traditionally, tossing horseshoes over the left shoulder is considered a symbol of good luck.
I've spent most all my life
I've dedicated most of my life to searching for luck, symbolized by a four-leafed clover.
Searching for that four-leafed clover.
A continuation of the quest for good fortune.
Yet, you ran with me
You accompanied me in pursuing my dreams and aspirations.
Chasing my rainbows
Together, we chased after the things that brought color and joy into our lives.
Honey, I love you too
Expressing affection, saying "Honey, I love you too."
That's the way love goes.
Summarizes the unpredictability and diverse nature of love.
That's the way love goes, babe
Reiterating the unpredictable nature of love, emphasizing it as a creation of God.
That's the music God's made
The music of love is universal and intended for everyone to participate in.
For all the world to sing
Love is ageless and continually evolving, a sentiment for the entire world.
It's never old; it grows
Love is perpetual and continues to grow, never becoming outdated.
Losing makes me sorry
Expressing regret and remorse for the times when I experience loss.
You say, "Honey, don't you worry."
Assuring a loved one not to worry in times of defeat.
Don't you know I love you too
Reaffirmation of love and support in the face of challenges.
That's the way love goes.
Recapitulation of the unpredictable nature of love.
That's the way love goes, babe
Reiteration of the unpredictability of love, emphasizing it as a divine creation.
That's the music God made
Love, like music, is created by God for the entire world to embrace.
For all the world to sing
Love is eternal and continues to grow, transcending the boundaries of time.
It's never old, it grows
Reaffirming the perpetual and evolving nature of love.
