Lyrics

Must have been loveBut it’s over now
Lay a whisper on my pillowLeave the winter on the groundI wake up lonely, this air of silenceIn the bedroom and all around
Touch me now, I close my eyesAnd dream away
It must have been love, but it’s over nowIt must have been good, but I lost it somehowIt must have been love, but it’s over nowFrom the moment we touched, ’til the time had run out
Make-believing we’re togetherThat I’m sheltered by your heartBut in and outside I turn to waterLike a teardrop in your palmAnd it’s a hard winter’s dayI dream away
It must have been love, but it’s over nowIt was all that I wanted, now I’m living withoutIt must have been love, but it’s over nowIt’s where the water flowsIt’s where the wind blows
It must have been love, but it’s over nowIt must have been good, but I lost it somehowIt must have been love, but it’s over nowFrom the moment we touched, ’til the time had run out
Yeah, it must have been love, but it’s over nowIt was all that I wanted, now I’m living withoutIt must have been love, but it’s over nowIt’s where the water flowsIt’s where the wind blows
but it’s over nowNo, no, no(It must have been love)(But it’s over now) but it’s over nowNo, no, no
