Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Love is here
And oh my darling, now you are gone
Love is here
And oh my darling, now you are 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

[Verse 2]
You closed the door to your heart, girl
And you turned the key
Locked your love away from me

[Verse 3]
Love is here
And oh my darling, now you are gone
You made me love you
And oh my darling, now you are 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

[Verse 4]
You stripped me of my dreams
You gave me faith, then you took my hope
Look at me now

[Verse 5]
Look at me
See what loving has done to me
Look at my face
See how crying 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 could not keep

[Verse 6]
My heart cries out for your touch
But baby, you are not there
And the lonely cry fades in the air

[Outro]
Love is here
And oh my darling, now you are gone
Love is here
And oh my darling, now you are gone
You made me love you
Oh oh my darling, now you are gone
Talking about love, love, love, love
Ooh ooh my darling, now you are gone
