(chant moore / michael powell / vernon fails)



A long time ago,

I was in love so pure and strong,

That nothing anyone said or did,

Could make it wrong.

So excited,

One touch was ecstasy,

And since that touch,

I've never been the same.



I wanna love like that again,

Just want a love like that, ooh yeah,

I wanna love like that again,

Only a love.



I thought of you today and i began to smile,

I reminisced on times gone by and oh, my, my, how we've changed,

I can recall the days, of sweet surrender,

I cherish the joy and the pain, two hearts so tender,

Although the path that we walked together, now we walk alone,

But now i've grown enough to know, all is fair in love,

I guess i really was not enough, somehow your endless love has died,

And oh, my, my, how we have changed.



But i wan't to love like that again, when my lover was my friend,

Although you never broke the skin, you live within,

Take me back to innocence.



I wanna love like that again, oh, oh, oh,

I wanna love.

I wanna love like that again, oh, oh, oh,

I wanna love.

I wanna love like i did way back then.



When too much was not good enough, one time would not suffice,

Oh, if we could turn back the hands of time, wouldn't that be nice,

But we both have grown enough to know it could never be the same,

Too much has changed, endless love has died,

And my, how we've changed.



But i wan't to love like that again, when my lover was my friend,

Although you never broke the skin, you live within,

Take me back to innocence.



I wanna love like that again, oh, oh, oh,

I wanna love.

I wanna love like that again, oh, oh, oh,

I wanna love.

I wanna love like i did way back then.



I'll be waiting here,

Take me back to innocence.



I wanna love like that again, oh, oh, oh,

I wanna love.

I wanna love like that again, oh, oh, oh,

I wanna love.

I wanna love like i did way back then,



I wanna love like that again, oh, oh, oh,

I wanna love.

I wanna love like that again, oh, oh, oh,

I wanna love.

I wanna love like i did way back then.
