Falling in love may be sweet, but falling out of love is just as bitter. When we feel that love is slowly fading away, we try to see if there’s anything left. Sadly, we only find the painful truth staring back at us and we then wonder where we went wrong. The words could not be said, but we already know that the feeling is no longer around.
You look at me and I can see the feeling’s gone
What happened to the dream we plan our future on?
You turn away and try to say what we both know
But baby, I can’t let you go
With the feelings gone, we put on a mask to hide the pain. It’s because we can’t summon the courage to face the truth. Erasing all those memories is hardly an option, and so, we ask, if not beg, for a second chance. A chance to set things right, start anew, and let that lost love find its way back home.
I try to hide the hurt inside so plain to see
I never could keep secrets from you anyway.
So hard to face, I can’t erase the thought of you
Oh baby, won’t you change your mind?
Change your mind and stay?
Seeing a loved one walk away is something we never want to happen. We don’t want to nurse a broken heart, and we don’t want to end up being lonely and all alone.
I don’t want to lose your love
I don’t want to be the one who’s brokenhearted
Don’t take the only love I’ve ever known!
I don’t want to lose your love
How could you go and stop what we have started?
Oh, baby, I don’t want to be alone
A sad love song can be good company when the one you love has decided to leave you. Let John O’Banion’s “I Don’t Want to Lose Your Love” help you soothe the pain in your aching heart. Please click here:
