Where Did Our Love Go

by Lenny Williams

on Still In The Game (2012)

12 years 4 kids 3 houses 2 dogs
My, how time does fly
Now we're walking up the steps to the courthouse
To forever say goodbye

All that's left is for the judge to slam the gavel
And for us to sign on the dotted line, oh
Tell me baby where did our love go
Is it lost somewhere in space or time?

And all I wanna know is
Where did our love go?
I've been looking for our love darlin'
Do you miss our love like I do?
Tell me, do you wanna try one more time?

Don't leave me baby, oh no
I don't wanna say goodbye
Don't leave, don't leave me darling
Or else you're gonna see a grown, grown man cry

I know I've been bad girl, oh
I've done wrong a time or two, oh
But please, please don't confuse my badness
With my, with my, with my love for you

Listen darling
I spent all last night talking to the pastor
He told me nothing beats a failure
Nothing beats a failure but I'll try
And girl, can you, can't you see
This is a real teardrop, oh
And it's falling, falling, falling, falling from my eye, oh

Where did our love go?
I, I, I've been looking for our love darlin'
Do, do, do, do you miss our love like I do?
Tell me, is there any love left in you?

Don't leave me baby
Girl, don't say goodbye, oh
Don't leave, don't leave me darling
Cause I, I don't want you to see a grown man cry

Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh baby
Girl, where did our love go?
I've been looking, I've been searching
I've been looking everywhere for our love
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh baby, yeah

Yeah girl, I, I told you yesterday I was doing a lot of thinking
And I was just, I was dreadin' coming down here today to this courthouse
But one while, I got a little smile on my face cause
I was thinking about when we
When we first met, the first time I ever saw you
And you were walking past me and I said
Hey girl, you forgot something
Come here, let me comb your hair
And you, you looked at me, and we started laughing
And then we went, sit down and had lunch, and
And next thing I knew, we was getting married
And we was raising kids and buying a house
And just having a good old time and
And then somehow I, I started drinking
I started hanging out with my friends
Stayed out all night, girl
Gambling, not paying the bills
Oh, oh baby
And you told me, you said
Lenny, you better straighten up, cause
You gonna lose your good thing
And somehow I don't know what it was, I
Maybe I just wouldn't listen
Girl but I, I kept on doing wrong
Oh, oh baby
One day I came home
I came home and you was gone
Girl I I I I, I went in the kitchen
And all the pots and pans were gone
I looked in the closet
And all, all your clothes were gone
And then I went to the kid's room, and
And the computers and their books were gone girl
And I sat down on the couch with my head in my hands
And I cried baby
Oh oh oh oh oh oh baby
I cried baby
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh baby
And then I came to myself
I started going to church
I called the pastor
I started going to counsel
I started reading books about how to get myself together
And let me tell you girl
Don't leave, don't leave me baby
Girl I, I know, I know we can find our love
Don't leave, don't leave me darling, oh
I've been, I've been looking for our love
Let me ask you one question
Where, where, where, where did our love go oh oh oh oh oh oh oh baby
