Emilíana Torrini - If You Go Away lyrics

If you go away on this summer's 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
And 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 on the sun we'll ride on the rain
And talk to the trees and worship the wind

But, 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?
Can I tell you now as you turn to go
I'll be dying slowly till the 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
Though the good is gone
From the word goodbye

If you go away if you go away
If you go away

If you go away as I know you must
There is be nothing left
In this world to trust just an empty room
Full of empty space like the empty look
I see on your face and I'd been the shadow
Of your shadow if you might have kept me
By your side if you go away
If you go away if you go away

If you go away if you go away
