If I Love Again

I often wonder why he came to me Brought such a flame to me And let it die And if another love should find my heart It will remind my heart of your goodbye With every new love you Will come back to me In others eyes, its you I see If I love again Though its someone new If I love again It'll still be you In someone else's firm embrace I'll close my eyes but see your face If I love again I'll find other charms But I'll make believe, you are in my arms And though my lips whisper "I love you" My heart will not be true I'll be loving Every time I love again --- If I Love Again - Lou Donaldson
