If You Go Away

If you go away on this summer day

Then you might as well take the sun away

All the birds that flew in the summer sky

When our love was new and our hearts were highWhen the day was young and the nights were long

And the moon stood still for the night bird's song

If you go away, if you go away, if you go awayBut if you'll stay I'll make you a day

Like no day has been or will be again

We'll sail the sun, we'll glide on the rain

We'll talk to the trees and worship the windThen if you go I'll understand

Leave me just enough love to fill up my hand

If you go away, if you go away, if you go awayIf you go away as I know you will

You must tell the world to stop turning

Till you return again if you ever do

For what good is love without loving youCan I tell you now as you turn to go

I'll be dying slow to the next hello

If you go away, if you go away, if you go awayIf you go away as I know you must

There'll be nothing left in this world to trust

Just an empty room full of empty space

Like the empty look I see on your faceI have been the shadow of your shadow

If I thought it might have kept me by your side

If you go away, if you go away, if you go awayBut if you'll stay, I'll make you a night

Like no night has been or will be again

I'll sail on your smile, I'll glide on your touch

I'll talk to your eyes that I love so muchBut if you go I know I will cry

And all the good is gone from the words goodbye

If you go away, if you go away, if you go away

Please don't go away
