Disconnected Lyrics by John Oates

2023

So disconnected where did we break down
I thought our love was built on solid ground

When think about the past, think about love and life
Obsess about the things that went wrong from right
Hindsight shoulda been plain to see
Thought it never coulda happened to you and me

I keep hearing bad love songs
They must be reading my mind
Keep playing on and on
I just keep hoping that time
Get it outta my head

So disconnected where did we break down
I thought our lives were built on solid ground, yea
So disconnected oh but I keep believing

Once upon a drеam
What about the world we had togethеr
Once upon a love
Love that’s gonna last forever
Gotta find a way
Yea, we could put it all back together
Once upon a dream, once upon a love
A love we thought would last forever

Now you were everything, you were heaven sent
Now time turned bliss to discontent
Love full of life turned to half alive
Infatuation can hypnotize
We were young, and we were solid as stone
But now young love is gone, guess we just got to move on
Gotta learn to move on

So disconnected where did we break down
I thought our love was built on solid ground
So disconnected oh but I keep believing

Once upon a dream
What about the world we had together
Once upon a love
I never did believe it was over
Gotta find a way
Oh got to put it all back together
Once upon a dream, once upon a love
Oh so disconnected

I thought our lives were built on solid ground

So disconnected where did we break down
I thought our love was built on solid ground
So disconnected oh but I keep believing

Once upon a dream
What about the world we had together
Once upon a love
I never did believe it was over
Gotta find a way
Wanna put it all back together
Once upon a dream, once upon a life
Oh so disconnected
So disconnected
Oh but I keep believing
