When we look at each other now
There's no love in our eyes
And when we talk to each other now
We just criticize

And we're trying to be lovers now
We never had to try before
Where's that feeling
That special feeling
We're not feeling any more?

We can't go on, living like this
Just going through the motions
Every time we kiss
Just think of all the good times we miss
Let's get back together
We can't go on, living like this

And tonight, once again, I'll reach for you
And you'll give yourself to me
Like you always do
And we'll fall away, unsatisfied
And lonely at the end
It was so good, once upon a time
Can't we love that way again?

We can't go on, living like this
Just going through the motions
Every time we kiss
Just think of all the good times we miss
Let's get back together
We can't go on, living like this

Let's get back together
We can't go on, living like this
