Lyric

You never close your eyes anymoreWhen I kiss your lipsAnd there’s no tendernessLike before in your fingertipsYou’re trying hard not to show it, babyBut baby, babyI know it
You’ve lost that lovin’ feelingWhoa, that lovin’ feelingYou’ve lost that lovin’ feelingNow it’s gone, gone, gone, whoa…
Now there’s no welcome lookIn your eyes when I reach for youAnd now you’re starting toCriticize little things I doIt makes me just feel like crying, baby‘Cause baby,Something beautiful is dying
You lost that lovin’ feelingWhoa, that lovin’ feelingYou’ve lost that lovin’ feelingNow it’s gone, gone, gone, whoa
Baby, baby,I get down on my kneesAnd pray to youIf you would only love meLike you used to do
We had a love, a love,A love you don’t find everydaySo don’t, don’t, don’tDon’t let it slip away
Bring back that lovin’ feelingOh, that lovin’ feelingBring back that lovin’ feelingNow it’s gone, gone, goneAnd I can’t go on, whoa…
You’ve lost the lovin’ feelingWhoa, that lovin’ feelingYou’ve lost the lovin’ feelingNow it’s gone, gone, gone
Bring back that lovin’ feeling,Whoa, that lovin’ feelingYou’ve lost that lovin’ feelingNow it’s gone, gone, gone
