If I Should Die Tonight

If I Should Die Tonight
Oh, If I should die tonight
Oh baby, though it be far before my time
I won't die blue, sugar, yeah
'Cause I've known you ('cause I've known you)

Ooh, oh, how many eyes
Have seen their dream
Oh, how many arms
Have felt their dream
How many hearts, baby
Have felt their world stand still?
Ooh
Millions never, they never, never
And millions never will, baby
They never will
Whoo, If I should die tonight (if I should die tonight, love)
Darlin', it would be far before my time
I won't die blue
'Cause I've known you
Oooh
Grateful that you're here
Grateful that you're lovin' me, my desire
Is to love you 'till I'm no longer here
And never tire
Love has been so good to me, me now
I'm so thankful
Ooh, oh, how many eyes
Have seen their dream (seen their dream)
How many arms
Have held their dream (held their dream)
How many hearts, oh darlin'
Have felt their world stand still
Oh Lord

Oh, millions never, no, never-never
And millions never will, sugar
They never will
If I should die tonight, ah baby
I just want you to keep this one thought in mind
That I would never die blue
'Cause I've known you
