If You Go Away - Dusty Springfield
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 with 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 the sun, we'll glide on the rain,
We'll 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, if you go away, if you go away,
Ne me quitte pas, Il faut oublier , Tout
peut s’oublier , Qui s’enfuit de'ja'
Oublier le temps , Des malentedus , Et le
temps perdu A savoir comment, Oublier ces
heures , Qui tuaient parfois
A coup 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 glide 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 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, full of empty space,
Like the empty look I see on your face.
I'd have been the shadow of your shadow
If I thought it might have kept me by your side.
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away.
