Where have all the lovers gone?
Where have all the lovers gone
Seems that something's going on
Used to be, 'Love Conquers All'
Now it's gone
And I just saw cupid stumble thru that door
Never saw him cry before
Broken-hearted, trembling bow
Could be he's the one who knows
'cause I don't
But I just heard him crying,
Where have all the lovers gone
Seems that something's going on
Used to be, 'Love Conquers All'
Now it's gone
I stood in awe as I declared
I don't know but I am scared
For all the love I have looked upon
Has disappeared, into air
And I cried,
Where have all the lovers gone
Seems a mystery
Have the times just run them off
Causing all this misery
Used to be so easy falling into love
We just said how we felt
Now it's politically incorrect to feel
Emotion would upset
So, where have all the lovers gone
I tell you now, there's something wrong
All the young ones need to know that
Love has never suffered so
Alert yourself to that lover's foe
...Indifference
And then they all cried,
Where have all the lovers gone
Seems that something's going on
Used to be, 'Love Conquers All'
Now it's gone
I know they're not here
They're just not here where
They have been before
And, oh dear Lord!
Cupid just went back through that door
To join all the loves before him
To play the game
To play the game
To play the same damn game!
And what a pity
Oh, what a shame
I almost wish I never came
To see the end
It's almost a sin that
Not even he could not win
The lovers game
So, where have all the lovers gone
I think they are dead...
