When the love is gone
There's nothing you can do but feel the pain
If only I could only feel the freedom that I've gained
I could be happier then and start again
When the love is gone
Instead of feelin' sorry, feelin' strong
If I could put it all behind were it belongs
And find that long lost friend and myself again
When the love is gone
And the memories tag along
When you know that you gotta go on
Yes, you gotta be strong
When the love is gone
There's no shoulder to cry upon
You gotta hold your head on high
When it says goodbye
When the love is gone
There's no one in the wings to take you home
But there's a strength one gets when goin' it alone
To make you wiser when it comes again
When the love is gone
And the memories tag along
When you know that you gotta go on
Yes, you gotta be strong
When the love is gone
There's no shoulder to cry upon
You gotta hold your head on high
When it says goodbye
And the moon reminds me of your love
And the rain reminds me of your love
Sit and watch the sun go down, it's you I'm thinking of
But I won't run back for all the stars above, no
When the love is gone
And the memories tag along
When you know that you gotta go on
Yes, you gotta be strong
When the love is gone
There's no shoulder to cry upon
You gotta hold your head on high
When it says goodbye
You gotta hold your head on high
When it says goodbye
