Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It starts with just a little glance now
Right away you're thinkin' 'bout romance now
You know you ought to take it slower
But you just can't wait to get to know her
A brand new love affair is such a beautiful thing
But if you're not careful, think about the pain it can bring
[PreChorus]
It makes you feel so bad, it makes your heart feel sad
It makes your days go wrong, it makes your nights so long
[Chorus]
You've got to keep in mind love is here
Today, and it's gone
Tomorrow, it's here and gone so fast
[Verse 2]
Right now you think that she's perfection
This time is really an exception
Well, you know I hate to be a downer
But I'm the guy she left before you found her
Well, I'm not saying you won't have a good love with her
But I keep on remembering things like they were
[PreChorus]
She made me feel so bad, she made my heart feel sad
She made my days go wrong and made my nights so long
[Chorus]
You've got to keep in mind love is here
Today, and it's gone
Tomorrow, it's here and gone so fast
[Outro]
Keep in mind love is here
Today, and it's gone
Tomorrow, it's here and gone so fast
Love is here
Today, and it's gone
Tomorrow, it's here and gone so fast
Love is here
Today, and it's gone
Tomorrow, it's here and gone so fast
