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 nightbird 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 that worship the wind
  And if you go, I'll understand
  Leave me just enough love 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 must,
  There'll be nothing left in the world to trust
  Just an empty room filled with empty space
  Like the empty look I see on your face
  Can I tell you now, as you turn to go
  I'll be dying slowly 'til your 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, I won't cry,
  The good's gone from goodbye
  If you go away, if you go away
  If you go away
