After The Love Has Gone

Here we are, we're perfect strangers
After all this time, there's no more you and I
But don't look for blame
We've come so far, to different places
And now, to try to live a lie would be a crime
It's better this way

And we may not have tomorrow
But there's always yesterday

After the love has gone, only fools carry-on
We've been hurting for so long
And we both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone, then we just don't belong
We both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone

It's clear this far, nothing to say now
We sang alone and tried so hard to play the game
It all ends the same
Just words, no more, to fill these spaces
When love is gone, it's only wrong to try again
I know, it's a shame—

That we may not have tomorrow
But there's always yesterday

After the love has gone, only fools carry-on
We've been hurting for so long
And we both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone, then we just don't belong
We both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone

Here we are, we're perfect strangers
Now, to try to live a lie would be a crime
It's better this way

And we may not have tomorrow
But there's always yesterday

After the love has gone, only fools carry-on
We've been hurting for so long
And we both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone, then we just don't belong
We both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone
