If I Should Lose You - Nina Simone

If I should lose you, the stars would fall from the sky

If I should lose you, leaves would wither and die

The birds in May-time — they’d sing a mournful refrain

And I would wander around — hating the sound of rain

With you beside me, the rose would bloom in the snow

With you beside me, no winds of winter would blow

I gave you my love — and I was living a dream

But living would seem — in vain if I

(Hating the rain — if I)

(All is in vain if I)

If I ever lost you
