Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes were an
Ame- rican soul and R&B vocal group. One of the most popular Philadelphia soul groups of the 1970s, the group's repertoire included soul,
R&B,
doo-wop,
and disco.
Founded in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania in the middle of the 1950s as The Charlemagnes, the group is most
noted for several hits on Gamble and Huff's Philadelphia International label between 1972 and 1976, although they performed and recorded
until Melvin's death in 1997. Despite group founder and original lead singer
Harold Melvin's top billing, the Blue Notes' most famous member was Teddy Pendergrass,
their lead singer during the successful years at Philadelphia International. The remaining members of the Blue
Notes have reunited for Soul Train Cruises in 2013, 2015, and 2017.
"The Love I Lost" is a song by
American R&B group Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes.
Originally written as a ballad by Philly soul songwriters Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff,
the song was transformed into a disco song and features drummer Earl Young. It was
released from the Black & Blue album in late 1973 and sold more than a million copies. In the 21st
century, the track has been the subject of extended re-edits by notable remixers Tom Moulton and Dimitri From Paris.
The love I lost
Was a sweet love
The love I lost
Was complete love
The love I lost
I will never, no, no, never
Love again, ooh
I can remember
planning
Building my whole world around you
I can remember hoping
That you and I could make it on through
But something went
wrong
We loved each other
We just couldn't get along
Take a good look at me
I'm in misery, can't you see?
The love I lost
Was a sweet love (yes it was)
The love I lost
Was complete love
The love I lost
I will never (never), no, no, never (never)
Love again, ooh
I can't remember
nothing, no no no
But the good times we used to share, oh no
I'm so sad and lonely
But without you, my life is so dead
I'm sorry to say
You go your way and I'll go my way
It hurts deep inside
The day we said goodbye, but the love
The love I lost
Was a sweet love
The love I lost
Was complete love
The love I lost
I will never (never) no no never
Love again (I'll never never never love again)
I will never (never) no, no, never (never)
Love again
I will never (never) no, no, never (never)
Love again
Never, no, no, never
Love again
Never, no, no, never (never)
Love again
Never
I lost it
Sorry I lost it
I lost it
Sorry I lost it
I lost it
Sorry I lost it
I lost it
Sorry I lost it
I lost it
Sorry I lost it
I lost it
Sorry I lost it
I lost it
Sorry I lost it
I lost it
Sorry I lost it
I lost it
Sorry I lost it
I lost it
Sorry I lost it
I lost it
Sorry I lost it
I lost it
Sorry I lost it
I lost it
Sorry I lost it
I lost it
Sorry I lost it
I lost it
Sorry I lost it.
