The Love We Made
(I'll never forget) The love we made
Searching through the shells,
where every human dwells...
you said, you found a pearl inside of mine
In me you found the good,
that I just never could,
you shined your light on me, but now I'm blind
Chorus
When I reach for you,
and I can't feel you there...
I remember the love we made,
and I sense you everywhere.
Now a cold breeze blows,
out the flickering flame...
(But) I'll never forget the love we made
Diamond from the coal,
extracted from the shoal...
you were the finest gem I ever mined
You took what's meant to be,
and gave it all to me...
(but) it doesn't mean a thing(baby) without you
Chorus
When I reach for you,
and I can't feel you there...
I remember the love we made,
and I sense you everywhere.
Now a cold breeze blows,
out the flickering flame...
(But) I'll never forget the love we made
Now a cold breeze blows,
out the flickering flame...
(But) I'll never forget the love we made
Now a cold breeze blows,
out the flickering flame...
(But) I'll never forget the love we made
