If you go away on this summer dayThen you might as well take the sun awayAll the birds that flew in a summer skyWhen our love was new and our hearts were highWhen the day was young and the night was lo-ongAnd the moon stood still for the night birds songIf you go away, If you go away, If you go awayBut if you stay I’ll make you a dayLike no day has been or will be againWe’ll sail on the sun, we’ll ride on the rainWe’ll talk to the trees and worship the windThen if you go-o I’ll understandLeave me just enough love to fill up my handIf you go away, If you go away, If you go awayIf you go away as I know you mustThere’ll be nothin’ left in the world to trustJust an empty room full of empty spaceLike the empty look I see on your face Can I tell you now as you turn to goI’ll be dying slowly till your next helloIf you go away, If you go away, If you go awayBut if you stay, I’ll make you a nightLike no night has been or will be againI’ll sail on your smile, I’ll ride on your touchI’ll talk to your eyes that I-I love so muchBut if you go, I won’t cryFor the good’s gone from goodbyeIf you go away, If you go away, If you go away
