Chrisette Michele - If I Have My Way

[@ceecc3108]

That very last note hit different. It's just magical bliss.

[@knowyourworth236]

My husband loves this song. When we got married, we danced to it our honeymoon night. To know that he still shivers when I sing it to him when we hear it takes me back. Nine years of marriage, sixten years together, three sons, six kids in all, and three grandchildren: #BlackLove still going strong through the ups and the downs. #IHadMyWay 😉

💖Lyrics💘
You're who I desire, you light my fire
With every kiss, you take me higher
Feeling like your lovin' I just cannot resist
There's something that's makin' me hold on
There's no one I'd rather share my good lovin' with
But I promised I'd wait till I'm ready for this
One day, we'll make love, passion unheard of
I'll be your woman if I have my way
We will see Heaven, lovin' together
We won't stop ever if I have my way
I love your touch; it makes me crumble
I'm in love so much; look what you've done
Please, don't whisper anything else in my ear
My body, my heart, and my soul is high
Let me find the strength to get on up outta here
'Cause, one day, the way we feel will be all right
One day, we'll make love, passion unheard of
I'll be your woman if I have my way
We will see Heaven, lovin' together
We won't stop ever if I have my way
I love you, no doubt about it
I won't change my mind
Love's so true
If I had my way
I will make love to you
One day, we'll make love, passion unheard of
I'll be your woman if I have my way
We will see Heaven, lovin' together
We won't stop ever if I have my way
One day, we'll make love, passion unheard of
I'll be your woman if I have my way
We will see Heaven, lovin' together
We won't stop ever if I have my way
