Terry Jacks - If you go away lyrics

If you go away

On a summer day

Then you might as well

Take the sun away

All the birds that flew

In the summer sky

When our love was knew

And our hearts were high

When the day was young

And the nights were 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'll sail the sun

We'll ride on the rain

We'll talk to the trees

We'll fly with the wind

But if you go away

When I love you so

There'll be nothing left

In the world you know

Just an empty moon

Full of empty space

Like the empty look

I see on your face

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

We'll fly with the wïnd

If you go away

If you go away

If you go away
