For awhile, to love was all we could do 

We were young and we knew 

In our 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 day 

Something happened along the way 

What used to be happy was sad 

Something happened along the way 

And yesterday was all we had 

And, oh, after the love has gone 

How could you lead me on 

And not let me stay around  

Oh, oh, oh, after the love has gone 

What used to be right is wrong 

Can love that's lost be found ? 

For awhile, to love each other with all 

We would ever need 

Love was strong for so long 

Never knew that what was 

Wrong, oh, baby, wasn't right 

We tried to find what we had 

Till sadness was all we shared 

We were scared 

This affair would lead our love into 

Something happened along the way 

Yesterday was all we had 

Something happened along the way 

What used to be happy is sad 

Something happened along the way 

Yesterday was all we had 

And, oh, after the love has gone 

How could you lead me on 

And not let me stay around ? 

Oh, oh, oh, after the love has gone 

What used to be right is wrong 

Can love that's lost be found ? 

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, after the love has gone 

What used to be right is wrong 

Can love that's lost be found ?
