Diana Ross - I Thought That We Were Still In Love

Last night while we were talking the way that old friends do
I suddenly got lost in my yesterdays with you
I told you that in my heart you would always be the one
That I'd lie waking in the dark, pray that you will come

But I didn't mean to say that
Somehow it just slipped out
I swear that I would take it back
If I could right now
All I ask is you believe
I'd forgotten where I was
With you there so close to me
I thought that we were still in love

Oh I knew just what I'd done when you stood up so fast
And say the friends that we'd become can't hold on to the past
You said it's been a long long time since love came to an end
If I hadn't learned to draw the line, it's useless to pretend

But I didn't mean to say that
Somehow it just slipped out
I swear that I would take it back
If I could right now
All I ask is you believe
I'd forgotten where I was
With you there so close to me
I thought that we were still in love

I don't think I could take goodbye, that much is still the truth
Won't you forgive me just for one night, it's what a friend would do

'Coz I didn't mean to say that
Somehow it just slipped out
I swear that I would take it back
If I could right now
All I ask is you believe
I'd forgotten where I was
With you there so close to me
I thought that we were still in love

Still in love
I thought that we were still in love
Last night while we were talking the way that old friends do
I suddenly got lost in my yesterdays with you
I told you that in my heart you would always be the one
That I'd lie waking in the dark, pray that you will come

But I didn't mean to say that
Somehow it just slipped out
I swear that I would take it back
If I could right now
All I ask is you believe
I'd forgotten where I was
With you there so close to me
I thought that we were still in love

Oh I knew just what I'd done when you stood up so fast
And say the friends that we'd become can't hold on to the past
You said it's been a long long time since love came to an end
If I hadn't learned to draw the line, it's useless to pretend

But I didn't mean to say that
Somehow it just slipped out
I swear that I would take it back
If I could right now
All I ask is you believe
I'd forgotten where I was
With you there so close to me
I thought that we were still in love

I don't think I could take goodbye, that much is still the truth
Won't you forgive me just for one night, it's what a friend would do

'Coz I didn't mean to say that
Somehow it just slipped out
I swear that I would take it back
If I could right now
All I ask is you believe
I'd forgotten where I was
With you there so close to me
I thought that we were still in love

Still in love
I thought that we were still in love
