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 will sail the sun
We will ride on the rain
We will talk to the trees
And worship the wind
Then 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
Il faut oublier
Tout peut s'oublier
Qui s'enfuit déjà
Oublier le temps
Des malentendus
Et le temps perdu
A savoir comment
Oublier ces heures
Qui tuaient parfois
A coups de pourquoi
Le coeur du bonheur
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
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
Then if you go
I'll understand
Leave me just enough love
To hold in my hand
If you go away
If you go away
Oh, 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 emtpy room
Full of emtpy space
Like the empty look
I'll see on your face
Oh, I'd live in the shadow
Of your shadow
If it might keep me by your side
If you go away
If you go away
If you go away
Please don't go away
