If You Go Away - Ne Me Quitte Pas

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 night was 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 night
Like no night has been or will be again
I'll sail on your smile, I'll ride on your touch
I'll talk to your eyes, that I love so much
Then 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

If you go away, as I know you must
There'll 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
If you go away, if you go away
If you go away
