Lyrics

If All Else Fails

[Verse 1] Surely your lips deceive me Surely I know you're fine And if we get too close this evening Well, apart we'll grow in time... And I know, that you're mine Sherie your heart I'll take you there, it ain't far [Chorus] And if all else fails I'll come running back Wonderin' where you went with my heart [Verse 2] Sherie your arms deceive me Sherie I know you're fine... And I know, that you're mine Sherie your heart I'll take you there, it's not far [Chorus]
