The first Line came to me, then the second, and it sounded like the Singer-Character and Love-Interest Character had something to explain, to each other, so I tried to let them.
I don't 'like' the Song, but I thought it was worth 'fabricating', or 'crafting' it to see if I could tell their story, or let them tell it. C/G F G7 G Am

"In A Funny Way" Copyright June 24, 2020 by Gary E. Andrews.

(Verse I)
I've been hiding Long Beach.
You've been hiding L. A.
You've been out of my reach.
I've been out of your way.
You woke me up today,
just to say,
"I love you,"
(Chorus Refrain)
In A Funny Way.

(Verse II)
I was dancing with Long Beach.
I saw you kissing L. A.
You know when you both cheat,
there's not much more to say.
You called me up today,
just to say,
"I love you," In A Funny Way.

(Bridge)
In A Funny Way,
things are working out.
At the end of the day,
isn't that what it's all about?
In a tragic comedy,
somebody has to say,
"I love you", In A Funny Way.

(Verse III)
I've been living with Long Beach.
You've been loving L. A.
Life has lessons to teach.
Love has prices to pay.
When my phone rang today,
I heard you say,
"I still love you," In A Funny Way.
"I still love you," In A Funny Way.
"I still love you," In A Funny Way.
