Letra
[Verse 1]
I love you, you love me
We were supposed to be a family
Changed your name, then the baby came
Oh, oh, those were my happy days
Flying high (Oh) over everything
'Til you took the wind from beneath my wings
Thought that love (Thought that love) shouldn't cost a thing (Shouldn't cost)
So why must I pay all these lawyer fees?
[PreChorus]
Need a resolution (Need a resolution, oh, baby)
Was it an illusion? (Was it an illusion?)
Can't get no satisfaction (No satisfaction)
And now you've got me asking
Got me asking
[Chorus]
Is this love? (Is this love?)
Oh, is this love (Is this love?)
Or is it just a transaction? (Transaction)
Is this love? (Is this love?)
Ooh, is this love (Oh, is this love?)
Or is it just a transaction?
[Verse 2]
Dragging me in and out of court
Tryna take all that I've been working for
Can you justify (Justify) what you say the baby needs?
Don't I make sure that she has everything?
Twenty thousand isn't child support
We both know just who that money's for
We've had our family ties and you went and cut me loose
And now the baby's wondering why we not under the same roof
[Chorus]
When did love (When did love)
When did love (When did love)
When did love become a transaction?
When did love (When did love)
Ooh, when did love (When did love)
When did love become a transaction?
[Bridge]
You left me emotionally bankrupted
We found our balance and you changed up, baby
And I don't have a clue of what's gotten into you
Can't explain what's happening, now you got me asking
[Chorus]
When did love
When did love
Become a transaction? (When did love become, become)
Oh, when did love, when did love, when did love
Become a transaction?
[Instrumental]
Oh, I
When did
When did love, love, love, love, love
When did love become a, become a transaction, baby?
When did love, love, love, love, love
When did love become a, become a transaction, baby?
I loved you and you loved me
We were supposed to be, be a family
But you, you threw it all away
The day you left, things haven't been the same, the same
[Instrumental]
When did our love
When did our love
(When did our love)
Become a transaction?
Tell me why
(I still can't believe it)
