If You Go Away [French translation]

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 days were young and the nights were 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 and worship the wind

And if you go, I'll understand

Leave me just enough love to hold 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 till

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 till our 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

Please don't go away
