If I Could Be with You - Carmen McRae

The very thought of you makes my heart sing

Like an April breeze on the wings of spring

And you appear in all your splendor

My one and only love

The shadows fall and spread their mystic charms

In the hush of night while you’re in my arms

I feel your lips so warm and tender

My one and only love

The touch of your hand is like Heaven

A Heaven that I’ve never known

The blush on your cheek whenever I speak

Tells me that you are my own

You fill my eager heart with such desire

Every kiss you give sets my soul on fire

I give myself in sweet surrender

My one and only love

The touch of your hand is like Heaven

A Heaven that I’ve never known

And the blush on your cheek whenever I speak

Tells me that you are my own

You fill my eager heart with such desire

Every kiss you give sets my soul on fire

I give myself in sweet surrender

My one and only love
