AFTER THE LOVE HAS GONE
Earth, Wind & Fire
(David Foster, William B. Champlin & Jay Graydon)
For a while, to love was all we could do
We were young and we knew in our eyes we're alive
Deep inside we knew our love was true
For a while, we paid no mind to the past
We knew love would last every night
Something right would invite us to begin the dance
Something happened along the way
What used to be happy was sad
Something 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, oh, oh, after the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found
For a while, to love each other was all
We would ever need
Love was strong for so long
Never knew that what was wrong
Oh, baby wasn't right
We tried to find what we had
Till sadness was all we shared
This affair would lead our love into
Something happened along the way
What used to be was all we had
Something happened along the way
What used to be happy was sad
Something 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, oh, oh, after the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, after the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found
Oh, oh, oh, after the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found
Oh, oh, oh, after the love has gone
