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

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

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

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
