Love Has Gone Away (Abbey Lincoln)
Love has gone away
heaving a sign with no regrets for yesterday
heaving a side love said goodbye
so with sad and love, love walked away, a spirit child
love had to go, loves has to play,
love went away, away from a place of fools in pain
with teardrops and heartaches all again
only a game of hatred and love
all thrown in together
of kiss or shove
reaching for my hand
love walked away, sighing to leave, but ready to stay
love walked away
love walked away
loved walked away and I walked away with love.
It change for my heart, love walked away
sad in to leave, ready to stay
love walked away
love walked away
love walked away, and i walked away with love.
