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 high



When the day was young

And 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 away



But if you stay

I'll make you a day

Like no day has been

Or will be again



We'll sail on the sun

We'll ride on the rain

We'll talk to the trees

And worship the wind



Then if you go

I'll understand

Leave me just enough love

To hold in my hand



If you go away

If you go away

If you go away



But if you stay

I'll make you a night

Like no night has been

Or will be again



I'll ride on you smile

I'll sail on your touch

I'll talk to your eyes

That I love so much



But if you go

I'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 away

As I know you must

There'll be nothing left

In the world to trust



Just an empty room

Full of empty space

Like the empty look

I see on your face



Oh, I'd 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 away



Please, don't go away
