AFTER THE THRILL IS GONE

Same dances in the same old shoes Some habits that you just can't lose There's no tellin' what a man might use After the thrill is gone The flame rises but it soon descends Empty pages and a frozen pen You're not quite lovers and you're not quite friends After the thrill is gone, oh After the thrill is gone What can you do when your dreams come true And it's not quite like you planned Oh, What have you done to be losin' the one You held it so tight in your hand Well, time passes and you must move on Half the distance takes you twice as long So you keep on singin' for the sake of a song After the thrill is gone You're afraid you might fall out of fashion And you're feelin' cold and small Any kind of love without passion That ain't no kind of lovin' at all Same dances in the same old shoes You get too careful with the steps you choose You don't care about winnin' But you don't want to lose After the thrill is gone After the thrill is gone After the thrill is gone After the thrill is gone
