Lyrics B.J. Thomas

B.J. Thomas

If You Must Leave My Life

Standing in my eyes

You'll always be the reason

That I know I can't keep you for good

And I'm not even sure that I should

Oh girl

If you must leave my life

You'll leave me alone

And baby, long

Before you leave my life

Be sure to have your own

Somewhere in my mouth

They'll always be the taste of you

Forever is so very long

I don't want your life to go wrong

So girl

If you must leave my life

Consider every part

And baby, long

Before you leave my life

Be sure you have your heart

Now consider every part

Girl, be sure to have your heart

'Cause if it's not there

When you unpack

It may not be here

When you get back

La, la, la

La, la, la

La, la, la, la

La, la, la, la

La, la, la

La, la, la

La, la, la, la

La, la, la, la

Oh girl

Be sure you have your heart

Oh, oh girl

Consider every part

Oh, oh girl
