SCOTT WALKER – If You Go Away

SCOTT WALKER – If You Go Away Lyrics

Artist: SCOTT WALKER
Song: 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
When our love was new
And our hearts were high

And the day was young
And the night was long
And the moon stood still
For the night bird’s song

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
And 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
As I know you will
You must tell the world

To stop turning, 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
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 glide on your touch
I’ll talk to your eyes

That I love so much
But if you go
I won’t cry
Though the good is gone

From the word goodbye
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 the empty look

I see on your face
And I’d have been the shadow
Of your shadow
If it might have kept me

By your side
