If I Ever Have To Leave

If I ever have to leave you love,
Please know I didn’t choose it.
You were my every waking thought,
My world, I wouldn’t lose it.

If I ever have to leave you love,
Don’t think I didn’t fight it.
If I had any choice at all,
We would never be divided.

If I ever have to leave you love,
I truly rue the day,
I always thought I’d be with you,
Beside you, come what may.

If I ever have to leave you love,
Please know I’m always there.
That somehow I will find a way,
To show you how I care.

If I ever have to leave you love,
The one thing you must know,
Is that you meant the world to me,
I didn’t want to go.

If I ever have to leave you love,
You’ll always have my heart.
Never fear, my love is here,
Even when apart.

If I ever have to leave you love,
Try to hear my laughter.
And see my smile once in a while,
Let it live with you hereafter.
