"If It Comes To That" lyrics

If It Comes To That

Everybody tells me
You're a woman with a past
Quick to make a promise
But your love will never last

They tell me that I'm foolish
To think that your love could be fair
But they don't know that I'm too much
In love to even care

I'll be satisfied
Loving and losing you
Honey if it comes to that

If it comes right down to hurting
And you break this heart of mine
At least I've known the happiness
Of having your love for a time

If it happens that I lose you
Then I'll have the memory
Of how you loved me

So I'll be yours until it happens
And I'm gonna love you all the way
I don't care what comes tomorrow
As long as you're all mine today

I'll be satisfied
Loving and losing you
Honey if it comes to that

If it comes right down to hurting
And you break this heart of mine
At least I've known the happiness
Of having your love for a time

If it happens that I lose you
Then I'll have the memory
Of how you loved me

So I'll be yours until it happens
And I'm gonna love you all the way
I don't care what comes tomorrow
As long as you're all mine today

I'll be satisfied
Loving and losing you
Honey if it comes to that
