Why do lovers drift apart How does love fade away When do pieces of a broken heart mend again You've been crying in the dark And you've been feeling alone Don't be scared of what you'll find When you turn the light on Ain't nobody gonna say goodbye Ain't nobody gonna walk away This time, baby, I'm learning how to love you, love you Ain't nobody gonna make you cry Ain't nobody ever really tried to love Like I love you What sad memory of yesterday What terrible scar Keeps you gathering pieces of Your shattered heart There was once upon a time When hope was living within I know there will come a time When you can believe again (Chorus) How long have you been feeling lost and lonely How long have you been sad and blue This time, baby, I'm learing how to love you, love you Ain't nobody gonna make you cry Ain't nobody ever really tried to love Like I love you This time, baby, I'm learning how to love you, love you Let me love you, like I love you
