Lyrics

You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lipsAnd there’s no tenderness like before in your fingertipsYou’re trying hard not to show itBut baby, baby I know it

You lost that lovin’ feelin’Whoa, that lovin’ feelin’You lost that lovin’ feelin’Now it’s gone, gone, gone, whoa-oh

Now there’s no welcome look in your eyes when I reach for youAnd now you’re starting to criticize little things I doIt makes me just feel like crying‘Cause baby, something beautiful’s dyin’

You lost that lovin’ feelin’Whoa, that lovin’ feelin’You lost that lovin’ feelin’Now it’s gone, gone, gone, whoa-oh

Baby, baby, I’d get down on my knees for youIf you would only love me like you used to do, yeahWe had a love, a love, a love you don’t find everydaySo don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t let it slip away

Baby, baby, baby, babyI beg you please, please, please, pleaseI need your love, need your loveI need your love, I need your loveSo bring it on back, so bring it on backBring it on back, bring it on back

Bring back that lovin’ feelin’Whoa, that lovin’ feelin’Bring back that lovin’ feelin’‘Cause it’s gone, gone, goneAnd I can’t go on, whoa-oh

Bring back that lovin’ feelin’Whoa, that lovin’ feelin’Bring back that lovin’ feelin’‘Cause it’s gone, gone, gone
