We once were so close now the love light that glowed has now gone out of our lives
And the good life we had for some reason went bad
And the love that once lived here has died
How did we get here where did it start when did we walk out of each other’s heart
Where did we lose it how did love die when where and how but most of all why
Most of all why did we let love die like the withering leaves in the fall
And why did we wait till it was too late to realize how much we’d lost
How did we get here…
When where and how but most of all why
