The Love That We Lost Lyrics

Chely Wright The Love That We Lost

Going through ol' dresser drawers
Fumbling through these closets
It's got to be here somewhere
I know it's round here somewhere
Searching from room to room
We couldn't have just lost it
I know it's round here somewhere
It's got to be here somewhere
Maybe we packed it up
With college books and winter clothes
Things we thought were in the way
Out of style or just outgrown
[Chorus]
We didn't give it away
We just left it alone
We tried to find it one day
That's when we noticed it gone
I turned this house upside down
Praying I'd stumble across
Some sign that it's still around
Got to find the love that we lost
Captured in old picture frames
Shining in those faces
It used to be here somewhere
I know it's still here somewhere
Reflected in our children's eyes
How could we misplace it
I know it was here yesterday
How could it just slip away
It was more than a box of junk
We stored away to gather dust
This was a dream we thought
We could always reach out and touch
[Chorus]
We didn't give it away
We just left it alone
We tried to find it one day
That's when we noticed it gone
I turned this house upside down
Praying I'd stumble across
Some sign that it's still around
Got to find the love that we lost
Got to find the love that we lost
