Chicago - If She Would Have Been Faithful Lyrics

I was thinking about her, visiting the past
Reconstructing details with old photographs
I was studying the faces with an objective point of view
Suddenly remembering doesn't haunt me
I'll follow the sun
And now the time has come, and so, my love, I must go
And though I lose a friend, in the end you will know oh
One day you'll find that I have gone
But tomorrow might rain so I'll follow the sun
All the time you couldn't tell me that one day I'd be glad
That something that I thought was love was misinterpreted

But they were doing me a favor, a blessing in disguise
If she would've been faithful, if she could have been true
Then I would've been cheated, I would never know real love
I would've missed out on you
I watch you sleeping, your body touching me
There's no doubt about it, this is where I want to be
You know it's so ironic, I had to lose to win
I want to thank her, if she would've been faithful
If she could have been true
Then I would've been cheated, I would never know real love
I would've missed out on you
It's a paradox full of contradiction, how I got from there to here
It defies a logical explanation
If she would've been faithful, if she could have been true
Then I would've been cheated, I would never know real love
I would've missed out on you
If she would've been faithful, if she could have been true
Then I would've been cheated, I would never know real love
I would've missed out on you

I was thinking about her, visiting the past
Reconstructing details with old photographs
I was studying the faces with an objective point of view
Suddenly remembering doesn't haunt me
I'll follow the sun
And now the time has come, and so, my love, I must go
And though I lose a friend, in the end you will know oh
One day you'll find that I have gone
But tomorrow might rain so I'll follow the sun
All the time you couldn't tell me that one day I'd be glad
That something that I thought was love was misinterpreted

But they were doing me a favor, a blessing in disguise
If she would've been faithful, if she could have been true
Then I would've been cheated, I would never know real love
I would've missed out on you
I watch you sleeping, your body touching me
There's no doubt about it, this is where I want to be
You know it's so ironic, I had to lose to win
I want to thank her, if she would've been faithful
If she could have been true
Then I would've been cheated, I would never know real love
I would've missed out on you
It's a paradox full of contradiction, how I got from there to here
It defies a logical explanation
If she would've been faithful, if she could have been true
Then I would've been cheated, I would never know real love
I would've missed out on you
If she would've been faithful, if she could have been true
Then I would've been cheated, I would never know real love
I would've missed out on you
