When You Love Someone - James Ingram, Anita Baker

Were we ever?, did we use it up too fast?

Are great moments never meant to last?

And the last thing that I want

Is to ever make your smile go away

Keep the momeries take the best of what we had

I can’t stand to watch what once was great go bad

And if I can’t be with you

Then I’d rather just remember what we knew

When you love someone

And you love them with your heart

And it does’t disappear if you’re apart

When you love someone

And you’ve done all you can do — you’ve done all you can

When you set them free

And if that love is true

When you love someone

It will all come back to you

Nights I wondered, was I too much that we gave?

If we’d given more could we have both been saved?

And I guess we have crossed the line

Never knowing what was yours

And what was mine

And through it all, I still have no regrets

Just promise me — promise me

You never will forget — you never will forget

When you love someone

And you have done all you can do

And you set them free and if that love is true

If you love someone, it will all come back to you
