If You Go Away

If you go away on a summer day

Then your mind as well take the sun away

On the birds that flee on a summer's sky

When the love was known

When the heart was high

When the day was young

When night was long

And the moon stood still

But 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

I'll sail on the sun, I'll write on the rain

Will talk to the trees and worship the wind

But if you go I'll understand

Leave me just enough love to feel up my hand

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

If you go away as I know you will

Please tell the world to stop turning till

You return again if you ever do

For what good was love without loving you

Can I tell you now as I turn to go

I'd be dying slowly till the next low

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 write on your touch

I'll talk to your eyes then I'll learn so much

But if you go I won't cry

Though the good has gone from the word goodbye

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

If you go away cause I know you must

There'll be nothing left in this world to trust

Just an empty wound full of empty space

Like the empty look I see on your face

I have been the shadow of your shadow

If you might have kept me by your side

If you go away, if you go away

Please don't go away...
