If You Go Away Barbara Dickson

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
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 the sun, we'll ride on the rain
We'll talk to the trees and worship the wind
Then 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 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
And I tell you now, as you turn to go
I'll be dying slowly until the next hello
