We don't talk much these days There's miles between us and the things that we say You've got your friends, and I've got mine You've got your life and so little time You sit there watching T.V. When you speak, you speak politely to me, It's a beautiful day, and nowhere to go We're drifting away, and both of us know Going through the motions of love Going through the motions of love How can two people be so far apart And keep going through the motions of love Two lonely people I know Lost each other a long time ago But still they cling to what could be Afraid to admit what both of them see Going through the motions of love Going through the motions of love How can two people be so far apart And keep going through the motions of love You just keep faking what you knowing to feel Such a fine performance, but it's not real Going through the motions of love Going through the motions of love How can two people be so far apart And keep going through the motions of love Going through the motions of love Going through the motions of love How can two people be so far apart And keep going through the motions of love
