Somewhere Along the Line
Jim Reeves · Moonlight and Roses/Jim Reeves Way [BMG UK & Irela [2004]
Somewhere along the line
I lost my love for you
I can't explain just why
I feel the way I do.
I only want to know
What made my love grow cold
What made me change my mind
Somewhere along the line.
The happiness I've known
No longer lives with me
I hold a passion for
The yearning to be free.
Whatever caused the change
Has left this mark so strange
My eyes for love went blind
Somewhere along the line.
Well it might have been
The night you tossed your wedding rings away
And it could have been
The many little things I meant to say.
A mystery,
I know I can't define
for I lost my love for you
somewhere along the line.
Somewhere along the line...
