IF EVER I WOULD LEAVE YOU

If ever I would leave you
It wouldn't be in summer
Seeing you in summer I never would go
Your hair streaked with sun light
Your lips red as flame
Your face with a lustre
That puts gold to shame

But if I'd ever leave you
It couldn't be in autumn
How I'd leave in autumn
I never would know
I've seen how you sparkle
When fall nips the air
I know you in autumn
And I must be there

And could I leave you
Running merrily through the snow
Or on a wintery evening
When you catch the fire's glow

If ever I would leave you
How could it be in spring time
Knowing how in spring I'm bewitched by you so
Oh, no! not in spring time
Summer, winter or fall
No, never could I leave you at all

If ever I would leave you
How could it be in spring time
Knowing how in spring I'm bewitched by you so
Oh, no! Not in spring time
Summer, winter or fall
No, never could I leave you at all
