Love is Gone lyrics

When love is lost
Nothing to say
Except you know no good will come of this
And life will never be so fine so fabulous miraculous
And now you'll fly alone
Beautiful girl in this café
I see the tears they glitter in your eyes
Here is a stranger sitting over here
Sending thoughts as light as air
You are not alone
You're not alone
You're not alone
What you feel now I too have known
You are not alone

When love is lost
the laughter's gone
The sun goes down, the chilly fog rolls in
And there is only Swiss chard to eat
And Brie and crusty bread rolls you made yesterday
Beautiful girl in the cafe
Who's crying for a man who's gone away
Beautiful dark wild green-eyed Irish rose
Listen for I know
You are not alone
You're not alone
You're not alone
What you feel now I too have known
You are not alone

When love is lost
So much remains
The steady roll of waves along the coast
The sweetness of summer rains
The biking up the grade
And then the racing downhill unafraid
Beautiful girl in this cafe
Now I am crying too
For my lost love
She was a woman beautiful like you
Who now is gone, she's gone, she's gone
We are not alone
We're not alone
We're not alone
Here take my hand, I will walk you home
We are not alone
