We fell in love and who could blame us The word was we were just beside ourselves And everybody said it wouldn't last Now they wonder Why we didn't last We fell in love It seemed so righteous Couldn't compare our love to no one else And everybody thought we could not win It's no wonder Love came to an end And our feelings Just aren't feelings anymore They're just words that come from whispers From people we don't know Just aren't feelings anymore They're just words without emotion From people who don't know We fell apart The bond was broken Should've kept our thoughts between ourselves And though they say they cared They didn't help Makes me wonder Should we blame ourselves So here we are Broken hearted What in the world have we done to ourselves When everybody says to let it end It makes me wonder We can't let them win And our feelings Just aren't feelings anymore They're just words that come from whispers From people we don't know Just aren't feelings anymore They're just words without emotion From people who don't know If we'd only just try we could make it by And maybe in time we could make it right If we only had done what we shoulda done We'd both be here still making love I want to know that, that we can go back Back to a time when the lovin' was all that When no one could come between our love And our feelings Just aren't feelings anymore They're just words that come from whispers From people we don't know Just aren't feelings anymore They're just words without emotion From people who don't know
