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;
When the day was young and the nights were long,
When 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 sun, we'll ride on the rain,
We'll talk to the trees and worship the wind.
But 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.
Ne me quitte pas
Je t'inventerai
Des mots insensés
Que tu comprendras
Je te parlerai
De ces amants-là
Qui ont vue deux fois
Leurs coeurs s'embraser
Je te raconterai
L'histoire de ce roi
Mort de n'avoir pas
Pu te rencontrer
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,
We'll talk to the trees and worship the wind
But if you go, I'll understand,
Give 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, – Ne me quitte pas
As I know you must, – Je t'inventerai
There'll be nothing left – Des mots insensés
In the world to trust, – Que tu comprendras
Just an empty room, – Je te parlerai
Full of empty space, – De ces amants-là
Like the empty look – Qui ont vue deux fois
I see on your face. – Leurs coeurs s'embraser
And I tell you now – Je te raconterai
As you turn to go – L'histoire de ce roi
I'll be dying slowly – Mort de n'avoir pas
Pu te rencontrer
If you go away,
If you go away,
If you go away,
If you go away,
If you go away.
Then you might as well take the sun away;

When the day was young and the nights were long,

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 talk to the trees and worship the wind.

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,
If you go away,
If you go away,
If you go away.
