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 a 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 nightbird 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's been or will be again

We'll sail on the sun, we'll ride on the rain

We'll talk to the trees that worship the wind

And 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 must

There'll be nothing left in the world to trust

Just an empty room full of empty space

Like the empty look I see on your face

Can I 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 your smile, I'll ride on your touch

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

But if you go, I won't cry

All the good's gone from goodbye

If you go away, if you go away

If you go away
