Jacques Brel
If You Go Away
If you go away
On the summerday
Then you might as wel
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 nights were long
And the moon stood still
For the night bird 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 to the sun
We'll ride on the rain
And talk to the trees
And worshop the wind
But if you go
I'll understand
Leave me just enough love
To hold in 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??
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
I'll sail on your smile
I'll ride on your touch
I'll talk to your eyes
Who that I loved so much
Oh but if you go
Oh I won't cry
Though the good is gone
From the world
Goodbye
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 this world to trust
Just an empty room
Full of empty space
Like that empty look
I see on your face
I'd have been the shadow
Of your dark
If I tought it might have kept me by your side
Ne me quite pas
Ne me quite pas
Ne me quite pas
