Michael Jackson › Lyrics › Love Is Here and Now You're Gone

Love is here and oh my darling, now you're gone
Love is here and oh my darling, now you're gone
You persuaded me to love you and I did
But instead of tenderness I found heartache instead
Into your arms I fell so unaware of the loneliness that was waiting there

You closed the door to your heart, girl
And you turned the key, locked your love away from me

Love is here and oh my darling, now you're gone
You made me love you and oh my darling, now you're gone
You said loving you would make life beautiful with each passing day
But as soon as love came into my heart
You turned and you walked, just walked away

You stripped me of my dreams
You gave me faith, then you took my hope, look at me now

Look at me, see what loving has done to me
Look at my face, see how cryin' has left its trace
After you made me all your own then you left me all alone
You made your words sound so sweet
Knowing that your love I couldn't keep

My heart cries out for your touch
But baby, you're not there and the lonely cry fades in the air

Love is here and oh my darling, now you're gone
Love is here and oh my darling, now you're gone
You made me love you, oh oh my darling, now you're gone
Talking 'bout love, love, love, my darling, now you're gone
Talking 'bout love, love, love, my darling, now you're gone
Talking 'bout love, love, love, my darling, now you're gone
