"When Love Is Gone" is a song from The Muppet Christmas Carol. It is sung by Belle (and partially joined by Scrooge), about her break-up with Ebenezer Scrooge for being more interested in money than marrying her. It is only heard on specific video releases. It is also sung by Martina McBride for the credits.

Lyrics

There was a time when I sure

That you and I were truly one

That our future was forever

And would never come undone

And we came so close to being close

And though you cared for me

There's distance in your eyes tonight

So we're not meant to be

The love is gone, the love is gone

The sweetest dream that you have ever known

The love is gone, the love is gone

I wish you well, but I must leave you now alone

There comes a moment in your life

Like a window and you see

Your future there before you

And how perfect life can be

But adventure calls with unknown voices

Pulling you away

Be careful or you may regret

The choice you make someday

When love is gone, when love is gone

The sweetest dream that we have ever known

When love is gone , when love is gone

I wish you well, but I must leave you now alone

It was almost love

It was almost always

It was like a fairytale

Would live out you and I

[Repeat 2x]

And yes some dreams come true

And yes some dreams fall through

And yes the time and come for us to say goodbye
