If I Ever Lost You

If I Ever Lost You - Jimmy Scott

How much my heart would ache

I know I can't explain

Nothing would be the same it's true

What in this world would I do

If I ever lost you

How would I ever sleep

What good is counting sheep

When memories come creeping through

I'd be continously blue

If I ever lost you

To me you are

The realm of desire

A dream that was fashion above

How could a fool so humble as I

But tell you

You're all that I love

Within my hungry heart

A million tears would start

And it would never spark anew

What in this world would I do

If I ever lost you
