Diana Ross - i thought that we were still in love

친구와의 대화 중, 과거의 사랑을 회상하며 감정을 실수로 드러낸 주인공은 그 순간의 후회와 함께 상대방에게 이해해 주기를 바란다
주인공은 그 사랑이 아직도 살아있다고 믿으며, 이별에 대한 두려움과 마음의 상처를 드러낸다
결국, 과거의 사랑을 놓지 못하는 마음을 보여준다

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
