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 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 And if you go, I'll understand But 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, and I know you will You must tell the world to stop turning 'til you return to me If you ever do, oh what good is love without loving you? I can tell you now as you turn to go I'll be dying slow '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 ride on your touch I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much But if you go, no I won't cry Oh, what good is love from the goodbye? If you go away, if you go away, if you go away If you go away and I know you will You must tell the world to stop turning 'til you return to me If you ever do, oh what good is love without loving you? I can tell you now as you turn to go I'll be dying slow 'til the next "hello" If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
