lyrics

It’s not quite like I remember
All the tenderness is gone
We’re not prepared to surrender
But we’re too tired to carry on

Although the heart is still beating
We’ve not the will to see it through
We put a hesitant hand to the face
That’s in the place of the love we once knew

There’s nothing we can do
And nothing left to prove
Since this is not the love
The love that we once knew

It’s sad but it’s true
We have a mountain to move
Since this is not the love
The love that we once knew


The feelings fade to a flicker
The flame is dimmer with each day
Slim pickings just a bit slimmer
With every bit that’s chipped away

Can’t push this into a corner
Though at the core it’s torn in two
We both agree it’s not over
But we can see it’s not the love we once knew

There’s nothing we can do
And nothing left to prove
Since this is not the love
The love that we once knew

It’s sad but it’s true
We have a mountain to move
Since this is not the love
The love that we once knew
