B.J. Thomas - If You Must Leave My Life Lyrics

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
