Lyrics If You're Ever In My Arms Again - Duke Ellington

It all came so easy
All the loving you gave me
The feelings we shared

And I still can remember
How your touch was so tender
It told me you cared

We had a once in a lifetime
But I just couldn't see
Until it was gone

A second once in a lifetime
May be too much to ask
But I swear from now on

If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll love you much better

If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll hold you forever
This time we'll never end

Now I'm seen clearly
How I still need you near me
I still love you so

There's something between us
That won't ever leave us
There's no letting go

We had a once in a lifetime

But I just didn't know it
'Til my life fell apart

A second once in a lifetime
Isn't too much to ask
'Cause I swear from the heart

If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll love you much better

If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll hold you forever
This time we'll never end

Never end

The best of romances
Deserve second chances
I'll get to you somehow
'Cause I promise now

If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll love you much better

If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll hold you forever
This time we'll never end

If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll love you much better

If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll hold you forever
This time we'll never end
Never end (ehhhhhhhh)
(In my arms...)
(Again)
End
