After the Love Is Gone - Mint Condition

Same dances in the same old shoes Some habits that you just can't lose There's no telling what a man might use, After the thrill is gone The flame rises but it soon descends Empty pages and a frozen pen You're not quite lovers and you're not quite friends After the thrill is gone, oh, After the thrill is gone What can you do when your dreams come true And it's not quite like you planned? What have you done to be losing the one You held it so tight in your hand well Time passes and you must move on, Half the distance takes you twice as long So you keep on singing for the sake of the song After the thrill is gone You're afraid you might fall out of fashion And you're feeling cold and small Any kind of love without passion That ain't no kind of lovin' at all, well Same dances in the same old shoes You get too careful with the steps you choose You don't care about winning but you don't want to lose After the thrill is gone After the thrill is gone After the thrill is gone, oh After the thrill is gone

Let the might of your compassion arise to bring a quick end To the flowing stream of the blood and tears They are drunk with demonic delusions What is right and what is wrong? Oh, you playing games, playing games, hurting my soul Seven days, seven nights without control Oh, every day, every night I was alone When you're not next to me Should I listen to my heart, girl? Should I listen to my brain? When you tell me, you'll leave me and you give it up Can't we still be friends? Oh, after your love is gone I don't know where I belong When you're not next to me, not next to me I'm dying, crying, baby Oh, after your love is gone Oh, baby, I'm so alone When you're not next to me, it's ecstasy I'm dying, crying, baby In a ocean of joy They are drunk with demonic delusions Oh, you playing games, playing games, playing with love You can run but don't hide, I can't get enough Anyway, anywhere, I'll be there 'Cause you're the one for me 'Cause when I give you all my heart, girl You know, I will die for you And when you tell me you'll leave me and you give it up I lose my destiny Oh, after your love is gone I don't know where I belong When you're not next to me, not next to me I'm dying, crying, baby Oh, after your love is gone Oh, baby, I'm so alone When you're not next to me, it's ecstasy I'm dying, crying, baby Oh, after your love is gone I don't know where I belong When you're not next to me, not next to me I'm dying, crying, baby Oh, after your love is gone Oh, baby, I'm so alone When you're not next to me, it's ecstasy I'm dying, crying, baby In a ocean of joy They are drunk with demonic delusions What is right and what is wrong?

Today I got a letter from someone Just a friend we knew some time ago And as I read between the lines I began to realize He didn't know I lost you a long long time ago. Oh, I just can't make it any longer Everything I do is always wrong I'm livin' a lie and there's no need in tryin' To keep hangin' on after all the good is gone. --- Instrumental --- Lord, I wish that I could die and there's no use in tryin' To keep hangin' on after all the good is gone...
