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 this 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 bird's 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 the sun, we'll ride on the rain
 We'll talk to the trees, we'll worship the wind
 And 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, 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
 I've been the shadow of your shadow
 I thought it might have kept me by your side
 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 the sun, we'll ride on the rain
 We'll talk to the trees, we'll worship the wind
 And if you go I'll understand
 Leave me just enough love to hold in my hand
 If you go away
 If you go away
 Ne me quitte pas
