|
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 |
|
And the day was young |
|
And the night was long |
|
And the moon stood still |
|
For the night bird's song |
|
|
|
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 the sun |
|
We'll ride on the rain |
|
And talk to the trees |
|
And worship the wind |
|
|
|
Then if you go |
|
I'll understand |
|
Leave me just enough love |
|
To fill up my hand |
|
|
|
If you go away |
|
As I know you will |
|
You must tell the world |
|
To stop turning, turning |
|
'til you return again |
|
If you ever do |
|
For what good is love |
|
Without loving you? |
|
Can I tell you now |
|
As you turn to go |
|
I'll be dying slowly |
|
'til the next hello |
|
|
|
But if you 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 much |
|
|
|
But if you go |
|
I won't cry |
|
Though the good is gone |
|
From the word goodbye |
|
|
|
If 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 face |
|
And I'd have been the shadow |
|
Of your shadow |
|
If it might have kept me |
|
By your side |
