CARMEN MCRAE - IF YOU NEVER FALL IN LOVE WITH ME



Music by Sam Jones

Carmen McRae – vocals
Norman Simmons – piano
Chuck Domanico – bass
Frank Severino - drums

I loved you so, since that first day
the angels let you leave and come my way
Don’t you see what a lost lady I’m liable to be?
If you never fall in love with me

I’m not the girl, I was before
cause now you own my heart for evermore
I’ll be a sail or a drift on an uncharged sea
If you never fall in love with me

If you come through, say that you’re mine
I’ll make your life one great big Valentine
We‘ll built a new love world for two
And we’ll find joys no lovers ever knew

I want to stay here by your side
and keep your arms forever occupied
Can’t you imagine how empty my future would be?
If you never fell in love with me

If you come through, say that you’re mine
I’ll make your life one great big Valentine
We‘ll built a new love world for two
And we’ll find joys no lovers ever knew

I said I wanna stay here by your side
and keep your arms forever occupied
Don’t you see what a lost lady I’m liable to be?
If you never fell in love with me

This little tragedy could turn into a rhapsody
With all my hopes sat in my world would tumble to ruin
And yet I see no reason we should let
They change as dream of romance
When all that need is a chance

Can’t you see what a lost lady I’m liable to be?
If you never fell in love with me
I’d live a life of ecstasy
If you ever fell in love with me…
