Minnie Riperton
If I Ever Lose This Heaven
[Verse 1: Leon Ware]
If you’re foolin’, only foolin’
All I ask is why
If you’re playin’ all I’m sayin’
Is feelings sure can lie

[Verse 2: Minnie Riperton & Leon Ware]
If you're lyin’ keep on lyin’
Don’t tell the truth don’t you dare (Don’t you dare)
(Don't you dare)
‘Cause you can’t drop me (Uh-uh) ‘cause you still got me (Uh-huh)
After takin’ me way up there

[Chorus: All]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
If I ever lose this heaven
If I ever, ever ever lose this heaven
Oh, oh, oh
I’ll never be the same
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
If I ever lose this heaven
If I ever, ever ever lose this heaven
Oh, oh, oh
I’ll never be the same

[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3: Minnie Riperton, Leon Ware, Both]
When you're kind, extra kind
Then suddenly you’re cross
You’re so moody, you get to me
Still can’t turn you off
You’re fascinating, more fascinating
Than the dark side of the moon
You’re so exciting that I’m rewriting
The book of love called you

[Chorus: All]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
If I ever lose this heaven
If I ever, ever ever lose this heaven
Oh, oh, oh
I’ll never be the same
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
If I ever lose this heaven
If I ever, ever ever lose this heaven
Oh, oh, oh
I’ll never be the same
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
If I ever lose this heaven
If I ever, ever ever lose this heaven
Oh, oh, oh
I’ll never be the same
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
