Lyrics If and When - The Three Degrees

Through these eyes
I can see loneliness heading my way
The light of love has gone out
Now your shadow's gone away

You take away the sound
The touch, the smell, my sight
To see your smile

Oh, oh, oh, if and when
You're headed back this way where love was found
Want you to know this girl will be around
(Still be around)
If you decide to mend a heart
That you broke in pieces

You told me when we first met
That you soon be going away
Because there is somebody else
Demanding all your time

She took away the sound
The touch, the smell, my sight
To see your smile

Oh, oh, oh, if and when
You're headed back this way where love was found
(Love was found)
Want you to know this girl will be (still) around
(Still gonna be around)
If you decide to mend a heart
That you broke in little pieces, oh baby

Loneliness, loneliness
Come on, come on back to me
I need your love (if and when)
Ooh baby (you're headed back this way where love was found)
Ooh, ooh I need you (want you to know this girl will still)
Come on, come on, I need your love (if and when)
Yeah, yeah, yeah (come back this way again, whoa, whoa)
(If and when) Come on back to me
(You're headed back this way where love)
Please, please, please, please
(Want you to know this girl will still around, be around)
Come on, come on, yeah (if and when)
Yeah, I need your love (Come back this way again, whoa, whoa)
(If and when) If and when
(You're headed back this way where love was found)
Ohhhh yeah (want you to know this girl will still)
I'm gonna be around (be around)
I'm gonna be around, yeah (if and when)
I'm gonna be around, yeah
(Come back this way again, whoa, whoa)
I need your love, I want your love (this way where love was found)
(Where love was found)
(Want you to know this girl will still around, be around)
Gotta have your love, yeah (if and when)
Yeah, I need you (come back this way again, whoa, whoa)
(If and when) Come on, come on, come on
(Where love was found, where love was found)
Come on, come on (this girl will still around, be around)
I still be around, yeah (if and when)
If and when, yeah (come back this way again, whoa, whoa)
(If and when) Yeah, yeah
(You're headed back this way where love was found)
(Where love was found)
(Want you to know this girl will still around)
Be around, yeah (if and when)
If and when, yeah, if and when
(Come back this way again, whoa, whoa)
(If and when) Come on, come on, yeah, yeah
(Where love was found, where love was found)
(Want you to know) Still give me your love
I'll be around, yeah (if and when)
If and when, if and when, yeah (this way again, whoa, whoa)
Come on back to me, yeah, yeah
Please, please, please (want you to know this girl will still around)
