The Seekers Lyrics
"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
And 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 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 ever been

Or will be again
We'll sail on the sun
We'll ride on the rain
We'll 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 waAs 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
Can I tell you now
As you turn to go
I'll be dying slowly

Till 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 ever been
Or will be again
I'll sail on you 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

For the good has gone from the world
Goodbye
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away, if you go away
