• The iconic opening line, "You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips," was inspired by a real-life conversation between Mann and his wife about their fading romance.

You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips

And there's no tenderness like before in your fingertips

You're trying hard not to show it, (baby)

But baby, baby I know it

You've lost that lovin' feelin'

Whoa, that lovin' feelin'

You've lost that lovin' feelin'

Now it's gone...gone...gone...woah

Now there's no welcome look in your eyes when I reach for you

And now you're starting to criticize the things I do

It makes me just feel like crying (baby)

'Cause baby, something beautiful's dying

You lost that lovin' feelin'

Whoa, that lovin' feelin'

You've lost that lovin' feelin'

Now it's gone...gone...gone...woah

Baby baby, I get down on my knees for you

If you would only love me like you used to do, yeah

We had a love, a love, a love you don't find everyday

So don't, don't, don't, don't let it slip away

Baby (baby), baby (baby)

I beg of you please...please

I need your love (I need your love)

I need your love (I need your love)

Well, bring it on back (So bring it on back)

Bring it on back (so bring it on back)

Bring back that lovin' feelin'

Whoa, that lovin' feelin'

Bring back that lovin' feelin'

'Cause it's gone...gone...gone

And I can't go on, woah

Bring back that lovin' feelin'

Whoa, that lovin' feelin'

Bring back that lovin' feelin'

'Cause it's gone...gone...
