For awhile, to love was all we could do We were young and we knew, and our eyes were alive Deep inside we knew our love was true
For awhile, we paid no mind to the past We knew love would last every night Somethin' right would invite us to begin the dance
Somethin' happened along the way What used to be happy is sad Somethin' happened along the way And yesterday was all that we had
And oh, after the love has gone How could you lead me on and not let me stay around Oh, after the love has gone What used to be right is wrong Can love that's lost be found
For awhile, to love each other with all We would ever need, love was strong for so long Never knew that what was wrong wasn't right
Somethin' happened along the way What used to be happy is sad Somethin' happened along the way And yesterday was all we had
And oh, after the love has gone How could you lead me on and not let me stay around Oh, after the love has gone What used to be right is wrong Can love that's lost still be found
And oh, after the love has gone How could you lead me on and not let me stay around Oh, after the love has gone What used to be right is now wrong Can love that's lost be found
