When Love Has Gone - Ralph McTell

When lovers part, time can provide

A healing they can build upon

Discerning pain from injured pride

When it seems all love is gone

She says, she loves him like a brother

He knows he ain’t done nothing wrong

She’s just fallen for another

To him it seems, all love is gone

I see it on my TV screen

It makes me wince and cry

To think of how it should have been

That this could come between you and I

What of brothers, egg and seed

Closer than father and son

From cold hands hot resentment feeds

When it seems all love is gone

And I see it on my TV screen

It makes me wince and cry

To think of how it should have been

That this could come between you and I

Reason’s anger’s casualty

Dark despair may follow on

Hearts as cold as charity

When it seems all love is gone
