We had hope   When I found you I was searechin' for myself   For you were slowly leavin' someone else   We were in that same old state of mind   And we helped each other leave the past behind      We had dreams   At first it all seemed too good to be true   And we tried our best and did all we could do   But if healin' can't be bound, how hard you tried   And a smile can't wipe away the tears inside      (We had love)   The kind that seems to come back, oh, so fast   (We had love)   Oh, but sometimes stronger than the kind that lasts   It can lift you up and let you down   While it helps you get your feet back on the ground      We had plans   We made when we believed that we would try   And we held on never dreamin' the dream would die   You brought me back and taught me things I'd never chanced to see   And I hope you'll always smile when you think of me      (We had love)   The kind that seems to come back, oh, so fast   (We had love)   Oh, but sometimes stronger than the kind that lasts   It can lift you up and let you down   While it helps you put your feet back on the ground      (We had love)   The kind that seems to come back, oh, so fast   (We had love)   But it was stronger than the kind that lasts   It can lift you up and let you down   While it helps you get your feet back on the ground      (We had love)   (We had love)   (We had love)
