sözleri ve bestesi peter cetera'ya ait chicago grubunun 1976 tarihli "chicago x" albümünde yer alan güzel slow bir şarkı.

if you leave me now

if you leave me now
you'll take away the biggest part of me
ooh, no, baby please don't go!
and if you leave me now
you'll take away the very heart of me
ooh, no, baby, please don't go!
ooh, girl, i just want you to stay

a love like ours is love that's hard to find
how could we let it slip away?
we've come too far to leave it all behind
how could we end it all this way?
when tomorrow comes and we both regret
the things we said today

a love like ours is love that's hard to find
how could we let it slip away?
we've come too far to leave it all behind
how could we end it all this way?
when tomorrow comes and we both regret
the things we said today

if you leave me now
you'll take away the biggest part of me
ooh, no, baby please don't go!
ooh, girl, just got to have you by my side
ooh, no, baby, please don't go!
ooh, mama, i just got to have your loving
