El DeBarge
When Love Has Gone Away
[Verse 1]
Nothing matters when you're on your own
Ain't no laughter, only alone
With the mem'ries of love you have known
You cling to yesterday
Sunshine shinin' only for one
Just brings darkness after it's done
You stay cold when you're on the run
A painful price to pay
[Chorus]
You die inside a little
Each time that you open your eyes
You try to hide
But you must face the truth
When love has gone away
[Verse 2]
Raining morning long overdue
Time I used to spend holdin' you
I don't think you were just passing through
It just turned out that way
[Chorus]
You die inside a little
Each time that you open your eyes
You try to hide
But you must face the truth
When love has gone away
(Away, away, away, away)
There's nothing that you can lose
(Oh, no)
You die inside a little
Each time that you open your eyes
You try to hide
But you must face the truth
When love has gone away
[Outro]
There's nothing that you can lose
When love has gone away
Oh, baby
Oh
