Madonna - If You Forget Me lyrics

You know how this is

If I look at the crystal moon

At the red branch of the slow autumn at my window

If I touch near the fire the impalpable ash Or the wrinkled body of the log

Everything carries me to you

As if everything that exists - aromas, light, metals

Were little boats that sail toward those isles of yours that wait for me

Well, now

If little by little you stop loving me

I shall stop loving you

Little by little

If suddenly you forget me

Do not look for me

For I shall already have forgotten you

If you think it long and mad the wind of banners that passes through my life

And you decide to leave me at the shore of the heart where I have roots

Remember

That on that day, at that hour, I shall lift my arms

And my roots will set off to seek another land

But, if each day, each hour, you feel that you are destined for me

With implacable sweetness

If each day a flower climbs up to your lips to seek me

Ahh my love, ahh my own, in me all that fire is repeated

In me nothing is extinguished or forgotten

My love feeds on your love, beloved

And as long as you live, it will be in your arms without leaving mine
