Why When the Love Is Gone

[Verse 1]
Ooh your love made a slave of me
But the love you gave you took away from me
Foolishly I believed in you
What a fool I was, thinking your love was true

[Pre-Chorus]
Selfishly you broke my heart (my heart)
You were only fooling from the start (you were only fooling)
Still I have but one regret (regret)
Although love is gone I can't forget

[Chorus]
Why when the love is gone
Oh why does my heart keep holding on
Why when the love is gone
Oh why does my heart keep holding on

[Verse 2]
Your love was sweet when it started
Darling, why'd you leave me broken hearted
Why'd you swear to always care
Then you walk away and leave me in despair

[Pre-Chorus]
Heartlessly, you told me lies (me lies)
Planning all the time to say goodbye (planning all the time)
Still I have but one regret (regret)
Although love is gone I can't forget

[Chorus]
Why when the love is gone
Oh why does my heart keep holding on
Why when the love is gone
Oh why does my heart keep holding o

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
Selfishly you told me lies (me lies)
Planning all the time to say goodbye (planning all the time)
Still I have but one regret (regret)
Although love is gone I can't forget

[Chorus]
Why when the love is gone
Oh why does my heart keep holding on
Why when the love is gone
Oh why does my heart keep holding on

[Outro]
Oh why, oh why
Tell me why, oh why
Tell me why, oh why
Tell me why, oh why
