Love Is Here And Now You're Gone

Love is here

And oh my darling, now you're gone

Love is here

And oh my darling, now you're gone

You persuaded me to love you

And I did

But instead of tendeness

I found heartache instead

Into your arms I fell

So unaware of the lonelyness

Thar was waiting there

Spoken :

You closed the door to your heart, girl

And you turned the key

Locked your love away from me Love is here

And oh my darling, now you're gone

You made me love you

And oh my darling, now you're gone

You said loving you

Would make life beautiful

With each passing day

But as soon as love came

Into my heart

You turned and you walked

Just walked away Spoken :

You stripped me of my dreams

You gave me faith, then you took my hope

Look at me now Look at me

See what loving has done to me

Look at my face

See how cryin' has left its trace

After you made me all your own

Then you left me all alone

You made your words sound so sweet

Knowing that your love I couldn't keep Spoken :

My heart cries out for your tuch

But baby, you're not there

And the lonely cry fades in the air Love is here

And oh my darling, now you're gone

Love is here

And oh my darling, now you're gone

You made me love you

Oh oh my darling, now you're gone

Talking 'bout love, love, love, love,

Ooh ooh my darling, now you're gone

我的爱还在

哦，亲爱的，你却已经离开

我的爱还在

哦，亲爱的，你却已经离开

你曾努力让我爱上你

你做到了

但为什么没有曾经的温柔甜蜜

只有心痛无尽漫开

我躺在你的怀里

感觉不到孤独

因为爱在那里

你闭合了心门

旋转钥匙

将我们之间的爱紧紧禁闭

哦，亲爱的，你已经离开了

你曾努力让我爱上你

哦，亲爱的，你却已经离开

你曾对我说相爱

会让我们的生活五彩缤纷

每一天都是这样

但当爱降临

在我的心底

你却转身

离开

你带走了我的憧憬

你曾经然我坚守着信念，现在又粉碎了我的希望

看看我，现在，你看看我

看看你的爱给我带来了什么

看着我的脸

是否看到泪水肆意奔涌后的痕迹

在带给我这一切后

你将我独自抛开

你曾在我的耳边甜言蜜语

却早已明白我拥有不了你的爱

我的心因你的触碰而震颤

但亲爱的，你已不在

孤单的眼泪在时光中褪去了颜色

我的爱还在

哦，亲爱的，你却已经离开

我的爱还在

哦，亲爱的，你却已经离开
