David Foster After The Love Has Gone - Earth Wind & Fire Lyrics

For awhile,to love was all we could do
we were young and new and your 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 -
something right
would invite us to begin the dance

But something happened along the way
what used to be happy was sad
something happened along the way
and yesterday was all that we had

Oh,
after the love is gone
how could you lead me on
and not let me stay around
Oh, after the love is gone
what used to be right is wrong
can love that was lost be found

For awhile,
to love each other was all
we would ever need love was strong for so long
we never knew that was wrong was right
we tried to find what we'd had but sadness was all that
we shared
we were scared our affair would tear our love in two

But something happened along the way
what used to be happy was sad
something happened along the way
and yesterday
was all that we had
