Lyrics

For a while

to (Bbm)love was all we could do.

We were (Fsus2)young and we knew, and our eyes

were a live,

deep in side we knew our love was true.

For a while

we (Bbm)paid no mind to the past,

(G#m7)we (Fsus2)knew love would last.

Ev ’ry (Dm7)night

some thin’ (Bbmaj7)right

would in (C9sus)vite us to be gin the dance.

(Bbmaj7)Some thin’ hap pened a long the way; what (Gm7)used to be hap py was sad.

(Emaj7)Some thin’ hap pened a long the way and (C#m7)yes ter day was all we had.

And (Cm7)oh,

(Fm7)af ter the love has gone,

(Eb9sus)how could you lead me on

and (Db9sus)not let me stay a round?

(Abm7)Oh,

(Fm7)af ter the love has gone,

what (Eb9sus)used to be right was wrong.

Can (Db9sus)love that’s lost be found?

For a while

to (Bbm)love each oth er with all

we would (Fsus2)ev er need.

Love was strong

for so long,

nev er knew that what was wrong, ba by, was n’t right.

We (Bbm)tried to find what we had

(G#m7)’til (Fsus2)sad ness was all we (Dm7)shared.

We were (Bbmaj7)scared

this af (C9sus)fair would lead our love in to.

(Bbmaj7)Some thin’ hap pened a long the way;

(Gm7)yes ter day was all we had.

(Bbmaj7)Some thin’ hap pened a long the way; what (Gm7)used to be hap py is sad.

(Emaj7)Some thin’ hap pened a long the way and (C#m7)yes ter day was all we had.

And (Cm7)oh,

(Fm7)af ter the love has gone,

(Eb9sus)how could you lead me on

and (Db9sus)not let me stay a round?

(Abm7)Oh,

(Fm7)af ter the love has gone,

what (Eb9sus)used to be right was wrong.

Can (Db9sus)love that’s lost be found?

(Abm7)Oh,

(Fm7)Oh,

(Bbm7)af ter the love has gone,

what (Ab9sus)used to be (Ab9)right was wrong.

Can (F#9sus)love that’s lost be found?

(C#m7)Oh.

(Fm7)Oh,
