Lyrics

Old love, why did I have to see you again?
When we parted, we said we'd be no more than friends
But the moment I saw your face, I wish that we could erase
The past and start with a love that would truly last
Old love, I was once blind now I see (Old love, old love, old love, old love, aah)
That no other love could ever, ever, ever do for me (Old love, old love, old love, old love, aah)
But this funny feeling I get inside makes me wish that we could comprise
And start anew and vow to never, ever be untrue
Old love, why did I have to see you again?
When we parted, we said that we'd be no more than just friends
Old love, I know I made a big mistake (Old love, old love, old love, old love, aah)
If you give me another chance, I'd try and erase (Old love, old love, old love, old love, aah)
All the pain (All the pain I've caused you)
All the hurt I made you go through (All the hurt I made you go through)
Old love, come on, let's try it again (Old love, old love, old love, old love, let's try it again)
Old love (Old love, old love, old love, old love)
Come on, let's (Let's try it again)
Come on, old love (Old love, old love, old love, old love)
Yeah (Let's try it again)
One more time, one more time
Say you'll be mine (Old love, old love, old love, old love)
Old love, come on (Let's try it again)
