You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'
Neil Diamond; Raven Kane Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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' feeling
Whoa, that lovin' feeling
You've lost that lovin' feeling
Now it's gone, gone, gone, whoa...

Now there's no welcome look
In your eyes when I reach for you
And now you're starting to
Criticize little things I do
It makes me just feel like crying, baby
'Cause baby,
Something beautiful is dying

You lost that lovin' feeling
Whoa, that lovin' feeling
You've lost that lovin' feeling
Now it's gone, gone, gone, whoa

Baby, baby,
I get down on my knees
And pray to you
If you would only love me
Like you used to do

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

Bring back that lovin' feeling
Oh, that lovin' feeling
Bring back that lovin' feeling
Now it's gone, gone, gone
And I can't go on, whoa...

You've lost the lovin' feeling
Whoa, that lovin' feeling
You've lost the lovin' feeling
Now it's gone, gone, gone

Bring back that lovin' feeling,
Whoa, that lovin' feeling




You've lost that lovin' feeling
Now it's gone, gone, gone

Line by Line Meaning

You never close your eyes anymore
You don't show any emotional intimacy towards me


When I kiss your lips
Even when we kiss, you still seem distant


And there's no tenderness
You're not affectionate with me anymore


Like before in your fingertips
You don't touch me with the same tenderness as before


You're trying hard not to show it, baby
You're pretending that everything is okay


But baby, baby
I see right through it


I know it
I know that you've lost the love you once had for me


You've lost that lovin' feeling
You don't love me anymore


Whoa, that lovin' feeling
The feeling of being in love has disappeared


Now it's gone, gone, gone, whoa...
Our love has vanished


Now there's no welcome look
You don't greet me with the same warmth as before


In your eyes when I reach for you
You don't respond to my affectionate gestures


And now you're starting to
You're beginning to


Criticize little things I do
You're finding fault with small things I do


It makes me just feel like crying, baby
It hurts me deeply


'Cause baby,
Because


Something beautiful is dying
Our relationship is falling apart


Baby, baby,
My dear


I get down on my knees
I pray to you


And pray to you
I'm begging you


If you would only love me
If you would just show me affection


Like you used to do
The way you used to love me


We had a love, a love,
We had an amazing love


A love you don't find everyday
A love that's hard to come by


So don't, don't, don't
Don't


Don't let it slip away
Don't let our love fade


Bring back that lovin' feeling
I want you to love me again


Oh, that lovin' feeling
The feeling of love


And I can't go on, whoa...
I can't continue like this


You've lost the lovin' feeling
You've stopped loving me


Bring back that lovin' feeling,
I want us to feel love again


Now it's gone, gone, gone
Our love has gone away
