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 And the day was young And the nights were long The trees stood still for the night birds song
If you go away If you go away If you go away
And 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 ride on the rain I'll talk to the trees And I'll worship the wind But if you go I'll understand Leave me just enough love To fill up my hand
If you go away If you go away If you go away
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 Let me 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
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 Oh, I'll talk to your eyes How I love them so much But if you go I won't cry For the good is gone In the word "goodbye"
If you go away Please don't go away Please don't go away
Please don't leave me I won't cry anymore I won't talk anymore I'll hide in your room And I'll watch you As you dance and you smile And I'll listen a while As you sing and you laugh Please let me become The shadow of your shadow The shadow of your hand The shadow of your glass On this shadow of a man
Please don't leave me Please stay Please don't go away
And 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 ride on the rain I'll talk to the trees And I'll worship the wind But if you go I'll understand Leave me just enough love To fill up my hand
If you go away Please don't go away Please don't go away
