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 heart 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, worship the wind

But if you go I'll understand

Leave me just enough love to fill my hand

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

If you go away as I know you will

You can tell the world to stop turning till

You return again if you ever do

Oh what good is love without loving you

Can I tell you now as you turn to go

I'll be dying so till our next hello

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 sail on your smile I'll ride on your touch

I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much

But if you go, go on I won't cry

Though the good is gone from the word goodbye

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

There'll be an empty room full of empty space

Just like the empty look I see on your face

Oh I had been the shadow of your shadow

If I thought it might keep me by your sight

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