Love Is Here and Now You’re Gone

Love is here
And, oh, my darling, now you're gone
Love is here
And, oh, my darling, now you're gone

You persuaded me to love you and I did
But instead of tenderness, I found heartache instead
Into my arms I fell, so unaware
Of the loneliness that was waiting there

We closed the door to your heart then we turned the key
Locked your love away from me

Love is here
And, oh, my darling, now you're gone
You made me love you
And, oh, my darling, now you're gone

You said loving you would make life beautiful
With each passing day
But as soon as love came into my heart
You turned and you walked, just walked away

You stripped me of my dreams, you gave me faith
Then took my hope, look at me now

Look at me
See what loving you has done to me
Look at my face
See how crying has left its trace

After you made me all your own
Then you left me all alone
You made your words sound so so sweet
Knowing that your love I couldn't keep

My heart cries out for your touch, but you're not there
And the lonely cry fades in the air

Love is here
And, oh, my darling, now you're gone (now you're gone)
Love is here
And, oh, my darling, now you're gone (now you're gone)
You made me love you, ooh (now you're gone)
Talking me down love, love, love, ooh-ooh (now you're gone)

(Now you're gone
Now you're gone)
