"If Love Must Go" lyrics

Another long and sleepless night
Has turned to tears and morning light
We've used up all the ways to say, "I'm sorry"
And even though we've loved so much
Now we used the words to touch
What's left of love?
And turn it into pain
And once you've opened up that door
You just can't close it anymore

If love must go
How can I face the world I've built around you?
You took me up on golden wings
Let me feel the gentle things that love could be
Oh, the world was you and me
What will I do?
I've used my love on you
There's no more for any other
And there's no holding back these tears
I'm feeling all the years
We'll never come to know
If love must go

If only we could turn around
Keep it all from falling down
We'd wake up in each other's arms tomorrow
We can't put it all away
Call it just another day
And all we're holding in ours arms is sorrow
When you forget what nights are for
You know it's no good anymore

If love must go
How can I face the world I've built around you?
You took me up on golden wings
Let me feel the gentle things that love could be
Oh, the world was you and me
What will I do?
I've used love on you
There's no more for any other
And there's no holding back these tears
I'm feeling all the years
We'll never come to know
If love must go
Ha, ha, ooh
