If You Go Away - Jack Jones

作词：Jacques Brel

作曲：Jacques Brel

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 nightbird'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 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 will

You must tell the world to stop

turning 'til

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 'til 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 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'll be nothing left in the

world to trust

Just an empty room full of

empty space

Like the empty look I see on

your face

I'd have been the shadow of

your shadow

If I thought it might have

kept me by your side

If you go away if you go away

if you go away
