Song Description

A woman, having just lost her love, wonders where love goes when it's gone.

Lyrics

{Verse 1}

Well, he said goodbye, wouldn't tell me why.
Wouldn't tell me what it was that I did wrong.
I gave myself to him, 'cos I was young back then;
Far too young to feel my heart break;
Far too young to know where love goes when it's gone.

{Chorus}

Where does love go? Does it fade into the distance?
Does it melt into the misty clouds of time gone by?
Where does love go? Does it fly out of existence?
Does it lose itself forever; does it shrivel up and die?

{Verse 2}

Well, I went to bed, couldn't rest my head;
Couldn't stop myself from crying all night long.
I cried the night away, couldn't face the coming day.
Couldn't face the fact he'd left me,
Couldn't face the fact that love was dead and gone.

(Chorus}

Where does love go? Does it fade into the distance?
Does it melt into the misty clouds of time gone by?
Where does love go? Does it fly out of existence?
Does it lose itself forever; does it shrivel up and die?

{Bridge}

We met again somewhere; he told me he still cared.
Said he never meant to break my fragile heart.
He asked me back again, but I was over him.
I left him standing with his memories;
With his memories and the echoes of a poisoned past.

{Chorus}

Where does love go? Does it fade into the distance?
Does it melt into the misty clouds of time gone by?
Where does love go? Does it fly out of existence?
Does it lose itself forever; does it shrivel up and die?

{Tag}

Where does love go? Does it fly out of existence?
Does it lose itself forever; does it shrivel up and die?
