Neil Diamond - If You Go Away lyrics

If you go away,

on this summerday,

then you might as well,

take the sun away.

All the birds that flew,

in the summersky,

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 daying slowly,

till 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.
