If You Go Away Lyrics
If you go away
On this summer day
Then you might as well
Take the sun away
All the birds that flewIn the summer sky
And our love was new
And our hearts were high
When the day was youngAnd the night was long
And the moon stood still
For the night bird song
If you go away, if you go away, if you go awayBut if you stay
I'll make you a day
Like no day has ever been
Or will be againWe'll sail on the sun
We'll ride on the rain
We'll talk to the trees
And worship the windAnd if you go
I'll understand
Leave me just enough love
To hold in my handIf you go away, if you go away, if you go away
If you go away
As I know you will
You must tell the world to stop turningTill you return to me
If you ever do,
Oh what good is love without loving you?
I can tell you now, as you turn to goI'll be dying slowly
Till your next hello
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away,
But if you stayI'll make you a night
Like no night has ever been
Or will be again
I'll sail on you smileI'll ride on your touch
I'll talk to your eyes
That I love so much
But if you goI'll understand
Leave me just enough love
To hold in my hand
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away, if you go awayIf you go away, as I know you must
There is nothing left in this world to trust
Just an empty room, full of empty space
Like the empty look I see on your face
I'd have been the shadow of your shadow
If you might have kept me by your side
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away.
