ARETHA FRANKLIN If Ever I Would Leave You Lyrics

If ever I would leave you, it wouldn't be in summer
Seeing you in summer, I never would go
Your hair streaked with sunlight, your lips red as flame
Your face with a l___er that puts gold to shame

But if I'd ever leave you, it couldn't be in autumn
I've seen how you sparkle when fall nips the air
How I'd leave in autumn, I never will know

I know you in autumn and I must be there

And could I leave you running merrily through the snow
Oh, no, not in springtime, summer, winter, or fall
If ever I would leave you, how could it be in springtime
Knowing how in spring I'm bewitched by you so
Or on a wintry evening when you catch the fire's glow

No never could I leave you at all
