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 the summer sky
When our love was new
And our hearts were high
And the day was young
And the night was long
And the moon stood still
For the night birds song
If you go away
But if you stay
Ill make you a day
Like no day has been
Or will be again
Well sail the sun
Well ride on the rain
And talk to the trees
And worship the wind
Then if you go
Ill understand
Leave me just enough love
To fill up my hand
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?
Can I tell you now
As you turn to go
Ill be dying slowly
til the next hello
But if you stay
Ill make you a night
Like no night has been
Or will be again
Ill sail on your smile
Ill glide on your touch
Ill talk to your eyes
That I love so much
But if you go
I wont cry
Though the good is gone
From the word goodbye
If you go away
As I know you must
Therell be nothing left
In this world to trust
Just an empty room
Full of empty space
Like the empty look
I see on your face
And Id have been the shadow
Of your shadow
If it might have kept me
By your side
