If I Ever Lose This Heaven

[MrScorpio]

The Average White Band

If you're foolin', only foolin'
All I ask is "Why?"
If you're playin', all I'm sayin'
Is feelings sure collide
If you're lyin', keep on lyin'
Don't tell the truth, don't you dare
You can't drop me, 'cause you still got me
After takin' me way up there

Oh, oh, oh, oh
If I ever lose this heaven
If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven
Whoa, I'll never be the same

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
If I ever lose this heaven
If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven
Whoa, I'll never be the same

When you're kind, extra kind
Then suddenly you're crossed
You're so moody, you get to me
Still can't turn you off
You're fascinating, more fascinating
Than the dark side of the moon
You're so exciting, that I'm re-writing
The book of love called "You"

Oh, oh, oh, oh
If I ever lose this heaven
If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven
Whoa, I'll never be the same

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
If I ever lose this heaven
If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven
Whoa, I'll never be the same

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
If I ever lose this heaven.... (fade)

1. That's a great tune! I miss the "old school" 70s bands........

that sang lyrics you could understand and repeat.

And they played real music, not just the series of sound effects that passes for music nowadays!

2. One of my all-time favorite songs

It was on the juke box at the diner I worked at when I was a kid. I think it was a "B side."

I just had to share

4. I have the first two AWB LPs on iTunes

Both excellent. I also just saw them in concert with Tower of Power a couple of months ago. They were both pretty good.
