Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It wasn't very long ago
I met you, I saw you
It wasn't very long ago
You whispered "I love you", look at us now
[Chorus]
Crying our hearts out
Through the night
Trying to remember what love was like, although
[Verse 2]
It wasn't very long ago
I thrilled when I kissed you
It wasn't very long ago
I cried when I missed you, look at us now
[Chorus]
Crying at hearts out
Through the night
Trying to remember what love was like, although
[Refrain]
It wasn't very long ago
[Bridge]
Look, look
My eyes aren't shining with love and they won't
Look
I'm not crying 'cause I need you, I'm crying 'cause I don't
Oh
[Verse 3]
It wasn't very long ago
You held me, so closely
It wasn't very long ago
I dreamed of, you mostly
Look us now
[Chorus]
Crying at hearts out
Through the night
Trying to remember what love was like
[Refrain]
Although it wasn't very long ago
It wasn't very long ago
It wasn't very long ago
Not so very long ago
