If you go away
|
On a summer day
|
Then you might as well
|
Keep the sun away
|
All the birds that flew
|
In the summer sky
|
And our lovers knew
|
And our hearts were high
|
And the days were young
|
And the nights were long
|
And the moon stood still
|
With the night birds song
|
|
If you go away (3)
|
But if you stay
|
I'll make you a day
|
Like no day has been
|
Or will be again
|
Well sail on suns
|
Well ride on the rain
|
Well talk to the trees
|
Well fly with the wind
|
|
But if you go away
|
And I love you so
|
They'll be nothing left
|
In the world you know
|
Just an empty moon
|
Full of empty space
|
Like an empty look
|
I see on your face
|
|
If you go away (3)
|
But if you stay
|
Ill make you a day
|
Like no day has been
|
Or will be again
|
Well sail the suns
|
Well ride on the rain
|
Well talk to the trees
|
Well fly with the wind
|
|
If you go away (3)
|
|
