“After the Love Has Gone” Lyrics:
For a while, to love was all we could do
We were young and we knew, and our eyes were alive
Deep inside we knew our love was true
For a while we paid no mind to the past
We knew love would last
Every night somethin' right
Would invite us to begin the dance
Somethin' happened along the way
What used to be happy was sad
Somethin' happened along the way
And yesterday was all we had
And oh, after the love has gone
How could you lead me on
And not let me stay around?
Oh, after the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found?
For a while to love each other
With all we would ever need
Love was strong for so long
Never knew that what was wrong
Baby, wasn't right
We tried to find what we had
'Til sadness was all we shared
We were scared this affair
Would lead our love into
Somethin' happened along the way
Yesterday was all we had
Somethin' happened along the way
What used to be happy is sad
Somethin' happened along the way
And yesterday was all we had
And oh, after the love has gone
How could you lead me on
And not let me stay around?
Oh, oh, oh after the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found?
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
After the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found
Oh, oh, oh, after the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found
Oh oh, oh after the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh after the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found
Oh, oh, oh, after the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that's lost be found

Loved playing with this guy .. I'm the drummer hoped you all liked the performance
Nice job Christopher !! Bill is a great guy
Nice job, lovely feel to your playing, kit sounds ace too!
Beautiful playing... your groove felt great.
Well played!
Beautiful performance, who can't like your drumming?
One of my favorite songs of all time. Bill sings with such soul. Plus, losing out to "What A Fool Believes", not something to be sad about. That's an excellent song too.
Still has AMAZING pipes !!! What a legend Bill Champlin is.
Whoah it really took me off guard how amazing she still sounds at 76!
The “Singer’s “ Singer. Champlin is unmatched
Bill and Tamara Champlin's voices blend beautifully!! ❤🎶✨with Chris Rodriguez!
Funny how a collaboration of Bill Champlin, Michael Mc Donald, and Steve Perry has always been my wildest imagination.
Champlin is not in the same Stratosphere as Mcdonald. Its an insult to Mcdonald to even be compared to him vocally.
@@robmorrison1043 of course, nothing compares to Mc Donald, but it's not about comparison, it's just a smorgasbord of vocal distinctiveness.
@@robmorrison1043 Two different approaches, two different styles. I like both voices. For me one of the best vocal duos was Champlin with Peter Cetera in the Chicago 16 and 17 albums.
@robmorrison104 No one's comparing anyone to anybody. It's just an idea of a collaboration. Not particularly something to be offended by.
Career wise and song wise he is ahead of Michael. Definitely a better resume, more vocal range back in the day as well. Although if you compare Michael McDonald’s If That’s What It Takes against Bill Champlin’s Runaway album it’s pretty close.
Bill Champlin is one of the best to beast ever Composer for Acoustic ,Jazz ,Rock balladeer performer of his generation upto the present no one will beat him ,it is not the first time I watch him from the band of Chicago with Mr.Peter Cetera and Jayson Scheff ,and those are the performers has a successful careers in the music industry
Bill, Peter and Jason just always did it for me. They covered the gambit of lyrics and vocal depth.
Bill and Tamara Champlin double level up in music.
A musical treasure and apelation 😅❤
Living legend! A night to remember!
Yes, and yes!!
Sons of Champlin one of the best ever!!!!
What a treat! Bill sounds amazing. Perfect harmonies. Back-up singers nailed it.
A master at his craft. And his wife sounds great with him ❤❤❤
i remember Bill from Sons of Champlin but had no idea he went on to work with Chicago , great find here tonite for me
Lol, Bill was with Chicago from 1982 to 2009.
Actually he joined Chicago in November of 1981 to begin writing on Chicago 16.
@@frank8235And to think this song could've been a Chicago song had Foster came in to produce their 14th album. And they might've stayed with Columbia since this song was a huge hit. Bill would sing lead and Peter, backing vocals, it would've been a huge hit for them. But who knows, things happen for a reason, a few yrs later they'd have a number of their own.
@@lamarravery4094 When Chicago came out with their 14th album Bill didn't meet David Foster yet. After the love is gone was written in 1979 for Earth, wind, and fire
David produced Bill’s first solo album Single in 1978.
Jesus Christ that man can sing.
Bravo! A wonderful performance.
I love everything Bill does!
One of the yatch rock cats of the late 70s to mid 80s. He wrote the bridge of lee rits and another silky smooth voice of eric tagg " Is it You." They..graydon, goodrum, richard page, cross, foster, kipner etc are treasures.
Been a fan of this guy ever since the first time I heard the Sons @ the Del Mar Autumn Equinox festival in 1968 where the Sons of Champlin blew my mind as a 14-y-o keyboard/sax player. Ignited my longtime love affair with such Bay Area bands like Tower of Power, Cold Blood, Sly Stone, and of course, this dude. The Sons were so popular with local musicians, their San Diego audiences were like the who's who of local talent who shared a common affinity for the many solid players Bill played with. Sadly I only made it to 3 of their San Diego shows...Del Mar '68, Starlight Bowl, Balboa Park in '73, and Humphry's-Shelter Island. Always a crowd-pleaser and a solid badass on the B3. Wishing Bill, Tamara, and the rest of their family and friends the best of health and the deepest joy.
What a freakin' legend. Chicago did him dirty.
Bill Champlin is an amazing musician, songwriter, and producer. My Favorite song written by him is "Love Speaks Louder Than Words" which AL Jarreau is known for on his "High Crime" Album
Always been a great singer and talented musician Loved him with Chicago
Always has been, and always will be!
Awesome. He can sing and what a great song!
one of the great modern day composers 👍🏻
Nice job. I see Chris Rodriguez on guitar. Awesome dude.
Still stay in his great voice and grooviness beyond years, a true musician 😎
Muito bom parabéns
Bill Champlin was still doing this in 2021? I remember listening to his "Get High" with the Sons in 1977. What a gift this man is.
Great classic song by an incredible writer. Love to see the mega talented Chris Rodrigues playing strings on this one.
Great performance👍
Best !!!
Great to hear this version sung by one of its writers, the great Bill Champlin. I love hearing how he's altering certain parts of the melody of the EW&F version. Champlin's group, "The Sons of Champlin" were IMHO, the best of the "San Francisco Sound" rock groups of the late 60's and early 70's. Saw them many times as a kid growing up in north CA.
Iconic
I had no idea he had written that. One of EWF best and one of the best ballads ever.
Awesome song and performance !!! Thanks for such an incredible song !!! How many times I used to hear it on the radio !!! Incredible times !!! And Best music Ever ! Marcelo From Argentina, Buenos Aires...
Love this
lindo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Increíble interpretación....
Been a fan since loosen up naturally.
I used to see Champlin's name on many old LPs. One of them Quincy Jones. Respect! Never knew he wrote this tune. I would like to ask songwriters like him who come up with classics like After the Love is Gone how did they come up with this tune? Where does it birth? Through a happening/event or just comes up in the mind? The words of the song are really emotional; though most of us don't focus on them. And the melody great. Just a thought
What a voice
👍
Great performance by all!! Can you please let us know who the musicians are on this performance? Thank you.
Bill, what piano are you playing? Patch is vibrant.
too funny - what a fool believes is one of the greatest songs ever, But I love this
Haha! Dead on!
I'm a child of the 60's, but I would say 1979 was a good year for pop music: "After the Love Has Gone", "What a Fool Believes" and "Don't Stop till You Get Enough" come to mind.
Amazing performance! And where do I find that patch that he is using on his Yamaha Montage? Beautiful!
Jay ❤
Rodge shows up everywhere :)
Fantasic musicians but the sound engineer is using to much compression.
LOVED BILL SINCE HIS GREAT "SONS OF CHAMPLIN" DAYS...LIVE-INCREDIBLE!!!!
