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
