If You’re Gonna Love Someone Lyrics by The Infamous Stringdusters

Rise Sun

2019

[Verse 1]
I was lost on a road trip to nowhere
Broken blacktop backroads on the dark side of the moon
Then you appeared like some kind of apparition
Like a ghost or a magician from out of the blue
[Chorus]
You said it's a long and a lonesome road you’re traveling on
Don't know where you're going or where you’re coming from
Got no reason to worry, life goes on
But you gotta love yourself if you're gonna love someone
If you're gonna love someone
[Verse 2]
I woke up from the dream I've been dreaming
Sunlight was streaming into the room
Things had changed, felt like something had shifted
Like a weigh had been lifted and not a moment too soon
[Chorus]
I said it's a long and a lonesome road you're traveling on
Don't know where you're going or where you’re coming from
Got no reason to worry, life goes on
But you gotta love yourself if you’re gonna love someone
If you're gonna love someone
[Verse 3]
I was scared, had my senses deceive me
I wonder would my friends believe me or think that I’d gone mad?
So I stood still and I let go of the sinking
'Til I heard a voice speaking from beyond the blue
[Chorus]
And it said it's a long and a lonesome road you're traveling on
Don’t know where you're going or where you're coming from
Got no reason to worry, life goes on
But you gotta love yourself if you're gonna love someone
If you're gonna love someone
If you're gonna love someone
