If I Ever Lose You by Jeff Cohen and Paul deMarco © 2021

I’ve sold more guitars than i've had broken hearts
And i regretted every one
My friends all say i’ve suffered for my art
And i chose to pay the price for what i’ve done

Now i’m thinking it over… Counting the cost
Yeah i’m thinking about everyone i loved and everything i lost
I was thinking its too late... Its out of my hands
Then you showed me i'm still here
that’s something i never took the
time to learn how to understand

Chorus
If i ever lose you
I’d live this life with a dying heart
If i ever lose you
I’d see the sky but not the stars
And I‘d never want the chance to love
I’d never want the chance to love again

When i spent my days and nights in crowded bars
i never felt more alone
Cos all those faces never got to see my scars
No-one did till i got to take you home

Now i’m thinking it over… Why’d it take so long
How did i get it right this time after years of getting it wrong
When I’m thinking it’s perfect… So it must be a mistake
I can hear you tell me
There’s no one else on this earth you’d rather wake up with every day

Chorus
