Gentle Groove - Short Lyrics

We fell in love
Like a fleeting breeze
A moment's warmth in a cold night's freeze
But love turned to pain before long
The time was short but the hurt was strong

Short love is hard
I was in love alone for a long time
It's because we don't have much time together
I miss that precious time

Why do we chase what fades away
Knowing it won't it can't stay
I see it now, too late to mend
The shortness of love and the pain at the end

I thought that time would make me whole
But all it did was take its toll
Now I know in love's brief light
The worth lies in those fleeting nights

Short love is hard
I was in love alone for a long time
It's because we don't have much time together
I miss that precious time

Why do we chase what fades away
Knowing it won't it can't stay
I see it now, too late to mend
The shortness of love and the pain at the end

I didn't see it, I didn't know,
That in the end, we have to let go.
But maybe that's why we love again,
For the moments, not the end's refrain.

Why do we chase what fades away
Knowing it won't it can't stay
I see it now, too late to mend
The shortness of love and the pain at the end

The pain was short but the lesson was long
I'll carry it with me a silent song
In that brief time love felt so true
But it's the pain that lingers after you
