If
You Go Away
Neil
Diamond
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 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
We'll talk
to the trees that worship the wind
And 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 filled with empty space
Like the
empty look I see on your face
Can I tell you
now, as you turn to go
I'll be
dying slowly 'til your 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,
The good's
gone from goodbye
If you go
away, if you go away
If you go
away
