You've Lost That Loving Feeling
Righteous Brothers (The) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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 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, whoa
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) 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'

You never close your eyes any more when I kiss your lips
You don't seem to be as passionate when we kiss like you used to
And there's no tenderness like before in your fingertips
Your touch doesn't feel as gentle and loving as it used to
You're trying hard not to show it (baby)
You're trying to hide your true feelings, but it's obvious to me
But baby, baby, I know it
I know that you've lost that loving feeling and it's hurting me
Now there's no welcome look in your eyes when I reach for you
You don't look happy to see me when I try to be affectionate
And now you're starting to criticize the things I do
You're starting to find fault in things that you used to love about me
It makes me just feel like crying (baby)
Your behavior is hurting me to the point where I want to cry
'Cause baby, something beautiful's dying
Our relationship is falling apart and it's heartbreaking
Baby, baby, I get down on my knees for you
I'm willing to do anything for you, even if it means kneeling down
If you would only love me like you used to do, yeah
I just want you to love me the way you used to when things were better
We had a love, a love, a love you don't find everyday
Our love was special and rare, not something that you come across often
So don't, don't, don't, don't let it slip away
Please don't let our love slip away and fade into nothing
Bring back that lovin' feelin'
I want us to bring back the passion and love that we used to have
Whoa, that lovin' feelin'
That feeling of love and connection that we used to share
'Cause it's gone, gone, gone
Our love has disappeared and it's devastating
And I can't go on, woah
I can't continue on with our relationship if we don't bring back the love

The song is masterpiece and never gets old. My very first Righteous Brothers song my sister played it on cassette a few years back. Hands up if you're listening to this song in 2024!

Cynthia Weil, who co-wrote the song with her husband, Barry Mann, has passed. What a great song.

The Righteous Brothers bring back memories of my husband AL LaFore the only man I ever loved. I miss him so much and these songs bring him back to me in memories never to be forgotten.
