Lyrics After The Love Is Gone - Live 1988 - Earth , Wind & Fire

For a while
To love was all we could do
We were young, and we knew, and our eyes were alive
Deep inside we knew our love was true

For a while
We paid no mind to the past
We knew love would last
Every night, somethin' right
Would invite us to begin the dance

Somethin' happened along the way
And yesterday was all we had
Somethin' happened along the way
And yesterday was all we had

And oh, after the love has gone
How could you lead me on
And not let me stay around?
Oh, oh, oh, after the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found? (Yeah)

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Oh (after the love has gone)
After the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
What used to be right (love is gone)
Oh-oh-oh, yeah, yeah

(Oh, oh, oh)
Oh (after the love has gone)
After the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
(Can love that's lost be found?)
(Oh, oh, oh)

Yeah
(Oh, oh, oh)

Fill the place by yourself, hold on
(Oh, oh, oh)

One more time
(Oh, oh, oh)

The girl in black, listen up
Oh, oh, oh
(Oh, after the love has gone)
After the love
What used to be wrong is right
Can love that's lost be found?

Oh, ooh, oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh, oh
(Oh, after the love has gone)
After the love
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found?
Oh, ooh, oh, ooh, oh
