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 will sail the sun we will ride on the rain We will talk to the trees and worship the wind Then if you go I'll understand leave me just Enough love to fill up my mind 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 For what good is love without loving you Can I tell you now as you turn to go I'll be dying slowly till the next hello 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 will be again We will sail the sun we will ride on the rain We will talk to the trees and worship the wind Then if you go I'll understand leave me just Enough love to fill up my mind 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 For what good is love without loving you Can I tell you now as you turn to go I'll be dying slowly till the next hello If you go away - if you go away - please do not go away
