Where Is The Love
Sonya Spence Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooo, where is the love?

Where is the love that we once shared?
Where is the love?
Where is the happiness that we once knew?
Where is the love?

Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Where is the happiness?
Where is the love?

Days that we knew when we were so much in love
Where are they now?
Days when we walked hand in hand laughing together
Just where are they now?

Those days are gone. Those days of love
Those days are gone
Those days of love

Where is the love?
A-ha, where is the love?
Where is the happiness, peace and love?

Days that we spent together
Sharing the loveliness of life
Where are they now?
Many things we did together
We enjoyed so very much, but where are they now

Those days of love
Those days are gone
Those days of love

Where is the love?
Mm-hmm, where is the love?
Where is the happiness, peace and love?

Where is the love?
Sweet love, where is the love?




Bring back us lovely days
Where is the love?
