if you go away
on the 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 hearts were high
and the days were young and the nights were long
and the moon stood still for the night birds 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
and worship the wind
then if you go i'll understand
leave me just enough love to hold 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 till
you return again
if you ever do
for what good is love
without loving you
can i tell you now
as you turn to go
i'll be dying slowly
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
i won't
cry
though the good is gone
from the world
good bye
if you go away
if you go away
if you go away
please
don't
go
away
