Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Where are those happy days?

They seem so hard to find

I tried to reach for you

But you have closed your mind

[PreChorus]

Whatever happened to our love?

I wish I understood

It used to be so nice

It used to be so good

[Chorus]

So when you're near me, darling, can't you hear me?

SOS

The love you gave me, nothing else can save me

SOS

When you're gone

How can I even try to go on?

When you're gone

Though I try, how can I carry on?

[Verse 2]

You seem so far away

Though you are standing near

You made me feel alive

But something died, I fear

[PreChorus]

I really tried to make it out

I wish I understood

What happened to our love?

It used to be so good

[Chorus]

So when you're near me, darling, can't you hear me?

SOS

The love you gave me, nothing else can save me

SOS

When you're gone

How can I even try to go on?

When you're gone

Though I try, how can I carry on?

[Chorus]

So when you're near me, darling, can't you hear me?

SOS

And the love you gave me, nothing else can save me

SOS

When you're gone

How can I even try to go on?

When you're gone

Though I try, how can I carry on?

When you're gone

How can I even try to go on?

When you're gone

Though I try, how can I carry on?
