The Lovers We Were
Rediscovering Love: The Lovers We Were by Michael Ball
Lyrics
I can't believe
I'm surprised
We're talking again
We're communicating once more
Moving in nearer
Moving physically closer to you
Touching your hand
Physically making contact with your hand
Pulling you close again
Pulling you near in an embrace
Holding you tight
Holding you tightly
All those regrets
Feelings of sorrow or disappointment about past actions or choices
Those missing nights
The nights that were absent or missed
I can't say I haven't loved
I can't deny that I've loved
Some nights I had to share
There were nights when I shared my love with others
But no one compares
No one else can measure up
No one compares
-To the lovers we were
Compared to the past, the quality of our love
The lovers we were
Referencing the love we once shared
I can't believe
I'm surprised
We're dancing again
We're dancing together again
Still tepping on your toes
Still causing you discomfort by stepping on your toes while dancing
You're still getting mad
You're still getting upset or irritated
Yes sometimes I spoke of love
There were times I mentioned love
I tried a few affairs
I attempted a few romantic relationships
But no one compares
No one else can measure up
No one compares
-To the lovers we were
Referencing the quality of our past love
It's a long way back
It's a difficult journey to return to how we once were
We can try
We can attempt
It's a long way round
There's a longer route to take
We'll never let it down a second time
We won't repeat our past mistakes
I can't say I haven't loved
I can't deny that I've loved
Some nights I had to share
There were nights when I shared my love with others
But no one compares
No one else can measure up
No one compares
-To the lovers we were
Referencing the quality of our past love
No one compares
No one else can measure up
No one compares
-To the lovers we were
Referencing the quality of our past love
The lovers we were
Referencing the love we once shared
The lovers we were
