The Love That We Lost lyrics - Chely Wright

Going through old dresser drawers

Fumbling through there closets

It's got to be here somewhere

I know it's round here somewhere

Searching from room to room

We couldn't have just lost it

I know it's round here somewhere

It's got to be here somewhere

Maybe we packed it up

With college books and winter clothes

Things we thought were in the way

Out of style or just outgrown

[Chorus:]

We didn't give it away

We just left it alone

We tried to find it one day

That's when we noticed it gone

I turned the house upside down

Praying I'd stumble across

Some sign thats it's still around

Got to find the love that we lost

Captured in old picture frames

Shinning in those faces

It used to be here somewhere

I know it's still here somewhere

Reflected in our children's eyes

How could we misplace it

I know it was here yesterday

How could it just slip away

it was more then just a box of junk

We stored away to gather dust

This was a dream we thought

We always could reach out and touch

[Repeat chorus twice]

Got to find the love that we lost
