Composer(s): Eric Clapton; Bobby Whitlock
Performer(s): Derek & The Dominos;
and various other artists



Got to find me a way
To take me back to yesterday
How can I ever hope to forget you?

Won't you show me a place
Where I can hide my lonely face?
I know you're going to break my heart if I let you

Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?

Like a moth to a flame
Like a song without a name
I've never been the same since I met you

Like a bird on the wing
I've got a brand new song to sing
I can't keep from singing about you

Chorus

I'm beginning to see
What a fool you've made of me
I might have to break the law when I find you

Stop running away
I've got a better game to play
You know I can't go on living without you

Chorus
