Lyrics If I Love Again - Cannonball Adderley, Cannonball Adderley Quintet, Nat Adderley

If I Love Again

I often wonder why you came to me Brought such a flame to me then let it die
And if another love should find my heart
It will remind my heart of your goodbye
With every new love you’ll come back to me In other eyes it’s you I’ll see
If I love again, though it’s someone new
If I love again it will still be you
In someone’s else’s fond embrace
I’ll close my eyes and 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 you every time I love again
