If you go away
On a 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 heart song,
If you go away,
If you go away,
If you go away.

But if you stay,
I make you a day,
Like no day has been
Or will be again.
We'll sail on a sun,
We'll ride on a rain,
We'll talk to the trees
And worship the wind.
And if you go,
I'll understand,
Let me just one night
Long 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 till
You return again,
If you ever do,
Oh, what good is love,
Without loving you!
Can I tell you now,
As you turn to go,
I'll be dying slow,
Till the next high-low (?),
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.
And if you go
Oh, I won't cry,
Though the good is gone
>From the world goodbye.
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 the world to trust.
Just an empty room
Full of empty space,
Just like empty look
I see on your face.
I have been a shadow
Of your shadow,
If I thought it might
Have kept me by your side,
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.
And if you go
Oh, I won't cry,
Though the good is gone
>From the world goodbye.
Please, don't go away,
Please, don't go away,
Please, don't go away...

If you go away.
