If you go away


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 birds 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
Well sail the sun
Well ride on the rain
Well 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 must
There'll be nothing left
In the world to trust
Just an empty room
Full of empty space
Like the empty look
That I see on your face
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
Gone from goodbye
If you go away
If you go away
If you go away

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics IF YOU GO AWAY of IMANY is also present in the album Voodoo cello (2021)
