If You've Ever Been In Love
Intrigue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She's the kind of girl
Who can take your world
And spin it around
(Uh, oh)

And she's the kind of girl
Who can take your heart
And turn it upside down
(Oh yeah)

And it doesn't really matter the place or the time
I come alive when I look in her eyes
It's something I just can't explain

Chorus:
If you've ever been in love
You know what I'm feelin tonight
You know when the feelin is right
That one special girl
She makes all your dreams come to life
And if you've ever been in love
You cherish the moments you spent
You know you can always depend
On your special girl
Hoping the dream doesn't end

Just the way she smiles in the morning
Gets me through another day
(Sha la la la la la la)
And the minutes turn to hours
Every time she goes away
(Sha la la la la la la)

She's the one that I need, and I can't do without
I realize, now what love's what all about
I'd give her the moon, and the stars
But all that she wants is my heart

Repeat Chorus

(Instrumental)

And it doesn't really matter the place or the time
I come alive when I look in her eyes
It's something I just can't explain
It happens again and again

Repeat Chorus (2x)





If You've Ever Been In Love (4x)

Billboard and others had it right when they raved about your CD. Ahead of your time

@thenygalavant

One of the most underappreciated and underrated groups

@ZachKopkaZake

How did you discover them?

@thenygalavant

I knew them when thir first album came out. Billboard raved about it

@ZachKopkaZake

Incredible I hope to see the article someday

@HaroldFinchCM

Just found myself randomly singing this song, and was chuffed to see an official music video was made for this amazing tune! Nothing beats 90s R&B.

@tyronwatzinger3784
