Lyrics Richard Thompson

Richard Thompson

If Love Whispers Your Name

Next time I promise

I will be ready

Ready to move

When the clouds roll apart

Next time I promise

I will do it better

When the sun shines on me

And pierces my heart

If love whispers your name

Breathes in your ear

Sighs in the rain

Love is worth every fall

Even to beg, even to crawl

I won't act so cool

Won't be the fool

Next time

I won't quote the law

Won't be so sure

Next time

'Cause I once had it all and

I once lost it all and

I won't miss again

If the chance should come my way

If love should look my way

If love whispers your name

Breathes in your ear

Sighs in the rain

Love is worth every fall

Even to beg, even to crawl

I won't act so cool

Won't be the fool

Next time

And I won't quote the law

Won't be so sure

Next time

'Cause I once had it all and

I once lost it all and

I won't miss again

If the chance should come my way

If love should look my way

If love whispers your name

Breathes in your ear

Sighs in the rain

Love is worth every fall

Even to beg, even to crawl

Love is worth every wound

Each lonely day

Each sleepless night

Love is worth every wound

The price that you pay

To live in the light
