If You Go Away

If you go away
 On this summer's 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 birds song
 If you go away
 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
 Talk to the trees
 And worship the wind
 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
 If you go away
 Like I know you will
 You must tell the world to stop turning
 Til you return to me
 If you ever do
 Oh what good is love
 Without loving you?
 I can tell you now
 As you turn to go
 I'll be dying slowly
 Til your next hello
 If you go away
 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 you smile
 I'll ride on your touch
 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
 If you go away
 Like I know you must
 There'll be nothing left in the world to trust
 Just an empty room, full of empty space
 Like that empty look I see on your face
 I'd have been the shadow of your shadow
 If I'd thought it might have kept me by your side
 If you go away
 If you go away
 If you go away
 If you go away
