When love's light slowly starts to fade
On dreams and promises we made
What can we do to right this wrong
After the love,after the love has gone

When did our love began to die
It seems too late to wonder why
This feeling seems so strong
After the love, after the love has gone

After the love has gone
How can we still be friends?
How can we carry on?
After the love,after the love has gone

And now it's time to say goodbye
Just walk away, try not to cry
We'll love again before too long
After the love, after the love has gone

After the love has gone
After it finally ends
There'll be no sweet love songs
After the love, after the love has gone
How can we still be friends?
How can we carry on?
After the love, after the love has gone
