Lyric If You Go Away

if you go away
       on this summer s 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 nights were 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 on the sun - we ll ride on the rain
              and talk to the trees - and worship the wind

              but 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 will
       you must tell the world
       to stop 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
       i ll be dying slowly
        til the 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 glide on your touch
              i ll talk to your eyes - that i love so much

              but if you go - i won t cry
              though the "good" is gone - from the word "goodbye"

                            if you go away

                     if you go away

              if you go away

       if you go away
       as I know you must
       there is 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 I d been the shadow
                     of your shadow
                     if you might have kept me
                     by your side

                     if you go away

                            if you go away

                                   if you go away

                            if you go away

                     if you go away
