If ever I would leave you |
|
It wouldn't be in summer |
|
Seeing you in summer |
|
I never would go |
|
Your hair streaked with sun-light |
|
Your lips red as flame |
|
Your face with a lustre |
|
that puts gold to shame |
|
But if I'd ever leave you |
|
It couldn't be in autumn |
|
How I'd leave in autumn |
|
I never will know |
|
I've seen how you sparkle |
|
When fall nips the air |
|
I know you in autumn |
|
And I must be there |
|
And could I leave you |
|
running merrily through the snow |
|
Or on a wintry evening |
|
when you catch the fire's glow |
|
If ever I would leave you |
|
How could it be in spring-time |
|
Knowing how in spring I'm bewitched by you so |
|
Oh no not in spring-time |
|
Summer winter or fall |
|
No never could I leave you |
|
at all |
