Love always comes with some heartache that waits
A blind side that you don't always see
Somehow the best things, no matter how great
Aren't always free (oh)
What changed? (What changed?) I thought you were in it?
Well, it hurts how you no longer look at me now
Just saying (just saying), so strange, I'll admit it
Something like love in exile
Love felt like coming home
You were the best I've ever known
We had it all for a while
But now it feels like love in exile
Baby, don't turn away
Let's give our love another day
I used to live for your smile
But now it feels like love in exile
If love was a game, I believed we were winning
So, it's hard not to imagine my surprise
I thought this love was just the beginning (just the beginning)
But for you, it was just our demise
What changed? (What changed?) Now lost in a minute
While I wasn't still so busy in loving you now
So strange (so strange) how we see it so different
Leavin' our love in exile
Love felt like coming home (coming home)
You were the best I've ever known (best I've ever known)
We had it all for a while
But now it feels like love in exile
Baby, don't turn away (don't turn away)
Let's give our love another day (ooh)
I used to live for your smile (used to live for your smile)
But now it feels like love in exile
Whatever comes our way (whatever comes our way)
We can make it work somehow (make it work somehow)
It don't matter where you've been
I need to know (I need to know)
Where are we now? Where are we now? (Where are we now?)
Love felt like coming home
You were the best I've ever known
We had it all for a while
But now it feels like love in exile
Baby, don't turn away (don't turn away)
Let's give our love another day (ooh)
I used to live for your smile (live for your smile)
But now it feels like love in exile
